96 9000 CSE made a loud noise and stopped running

We are the 2nd owner of a Saab 9000CSE which was purchased with 39,900 miles. It now has 55,000 and has been babied since our purchase. We were told by the Dealership that the previuos owner is a valued customer who has had 5 Saabs previously. She is a Dr. who takes care of her car. With no indication, the car at 65 mph locked up on the highway. The dealerships explanation is that the engine was full of oil but the pistons were not recieving any oil thus causing the cylinders overheated and welded to the bores. My question is three part: If this is because of an oil pump gone faulty why would this occur at 55,00 miles. Secondly we were tod that a used engine would cost $5,000 and a new one would go for $8500? Third Saab customer service did not prove to be much help where else can I turn?
Thank you for any assistance Mick
