Since you have the cost covered by insurance I guess it doesn't matter that much but the tonneau motor failure is a well known one and it is a repair kit available to stiffen up the motor and gear box.
It will cost about $150.00 to 200.00 to have that installed instead of replacing the whole motor unit.
Saab dealers don't want to do that repair and claim it might not work for long, but me and many others have installed that repair kit and it works great, seemingly forever.
The 9-3 have some flaws too in the top mechanism and some people have paid thousands of dollars to have it repaired by replacing the whole pump motor assembly when it was only a little plastic gear that needed to be replaced for a couple of hundred.
