Search for drs<underscore>install and find the front and back brake posts. Read these, carefully, then inspect your brakes carefully front and back. Brake rotors are cheap, so consider replacing these. Get such from SaabNet sponsors, not the dealer!
Take special note of the rotor locking screws. These are soft and you can mangle the drive in the screws then you are screwed. A hammer type impact wrench is a good idea for this. Sears and others sell these. Drive the bits fully into the screws after cleaning out rust etc. Get some oil into the screw to rotor interface but keep the drive detail dry. Oil the rotor to centering hub seam. The put antisieze where the centering hub goes into the wheel. Some folks end up with the wheels not coming off.
You need to be concerned that one caliper is not working right. Could be slider bolts that don't or a bad piston. The imbalance in braking force is idicative of this. Rear brakes can do this too. Depends if you feel the steering wheel pulling too.
If you post the miles on the vehicle, you can get more informative responses.
