C-Pillar cracks were a "goodwill" repair from Saab...

I had similar cracking in the seams where the c-pillar meets the roof. I had my local dealership (Perillo in Chicago) look at it. I came in armed with all the information about this I'd gathered on these Saabnet forums, at least 15 reports of other 9-5 owners with this problem, and at least half of them reporting that they had it repaired under warranty. I'm not sure if those other vehicles were still in the warranty period or if this was a "goodwill" on the part of Saab.
The dealership spoke with Saab USA, and Saab offered to cover $250 of the repair, of a total $320. So I was out $70 for the repair.
This was done in June 2003; I was completely out of warranty and at the time had 79,000 miles on the clock.
Hope this information helps.
Cheers-
