>>One would have normally assumed that a Jap car like a Nissan or Subaru would be more reliable than a Saab, not so according to reliability experts like Consumers Reports and JD Powers<<
Mike, could you please cite the specific JD Power data to which you refer. It is true that the '01 9-5 got excellent ratings for the first 3 months of ownership. It is also true that the midterm (1-3 year) rating for mechanical reliability and the longterm (3 years) rating for overall quality are two stars out of five, the absolute lowest that Power has.
If you look at the Power car selector, the ratings for the 2004 9-5 in mechanical reliability and overall quality are, again, the absolute lowest they have.
All this stuff is easily found on Power web site. What evidence of outstanding reliability (after 3 months of ownership) are you referring to? I've asked this question in the past and been referred to ratings of the Saab Service departments - very nice, but I'm asking about the cars.
