OUR SAAB HAS BEEN IN SERVICE FOR 72K MILES AND WE HAVE OWnED IT ABOUT ONE YEAR.IT'S A GREAT CAR AND WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS UNTIL NOW. WE HAVE MAINTAINED OUR SAAB PUNCTUALLY AND WERE RECENTLY SURPRISED TO SEE THREE LIGHTS APPEAR,1) THE TRIANGLE ALERT, 2) THE BRAKE PAD LIGHT, AND 3) THE ABS LIGHT. IN ADDITION THE SPEEDOMETER AND THE ODOMETER WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. WE HAD THE BRAKES CHECKED IMMEDIATELY AND THEY ARE IN PERFECT ORDER. DURING THE NEXT FEW DAYS WE DROVE THE CAR SPARINGLY WHILE WAITING TO GET THE CAR TO A DEALER, DURING WHICH TIME WE RECEIVED A DIAGNOSTIC WITH A PRINT-OUT THAT INDICATED ONE WHEEL SPEED SIGNAL INPUT TO THE ABS MODULE WAS OUT OF THE NORMAL RANGE.WE WERE VERY SURPRISED TO SEE THE NEXT ENTRY WHICH WAS NOT TO REPLACE THE SENSOR, BUT TO REPLACE THE ABS MODULE AT A COST OF NEARLY $3000.00. OUR CONVERSATION ABOUT THE POSSIBILITIES OF FAILURE OF AN ABS MODULE IN A SAAB AT THIS POINT IN IT'S SERVICE LIFE ENDED WHEN WE UNDERSTOOD THAT NO ONE HAD EVER KNOWN OF A SINGLE FAILURE SUCH AS THIS. WE ARE AT THIS POINT A BIT PERPLEXED AT WHAT FAILED AND HOW DO WE RETURN OUR CAR TO SERVICE WITHOUT ENDURING A $3000.00 REPAIR THAT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.
CAN ANYONE PLEASE OFFER US SOME WORDS OF ADVICE? WE KNOW SAAB MAKES A BETTER PRODUCT THAN THIS AND OUR PROBLEM IS FAR FROM THE NORM. HOWEVER, WHOLE SYSTEM REPLACEMENT WILL FIX ALMOST ANY PROBLEM BUT IT ADDS GREATLY TO THE COST OF DRIVING/OWNING A SAAB.
Thanks in advance
Lance
