Got my free timing belt at 59k, tensioner went at 61k, 6k of engine damage. Dealer was aware that tensioners are often defective but they say if they tell people coming in for their ostensibly free timing belt that they need to change the pulley at the tune of about $400 they think the dealer is trying to rip them off. They were good Joes and repaired everything at no cost to me, with the help of Saab USA (and after lots of yelling from me.) Saab, however, should also include the cost of the pulley in the "free" belt replacement, as they must be aware of the problem (see multiple postings on this bb).
