Recall is not accurate, it is actually a warranty extension on certain models.
This is from the SAAB bulletin;
Q: Can you describe the problem?
A: Excessive wear of some internal engine components due to degeneration of the oil affecting its ability to adequately lubricate the engine.
Q: How will a customer know if their car has this condition?
A: There may be an unusual rattle or flashing of the oil pressure indicator. If in doubt or at all concerned, customers should contact their Authorized Saab dealer.
Q: What models are affected?
A: 9-5 with fam. III engines ( B205, B235 ) from MY98 incl. MY03
9-3 with fam. III engines ( B205, B235 ) from MY 00 incl. MY02 MY03 CV. and 9-3 MY99 Viggen.
Q: How many cars in the US/CA are involved?
A: 113,000 cars, with a limited number actually affected.
In order to seek relief under this extension a customer MUST have documented proof that ALL services were performed and on time.
If you qualify the warranty has been extended to 8 years unlimited mileage on CERTAIN engine parts.
