Brakes failed on 1999 Saab 9-5. problem was due to a vacuum failure in the brake system. Apparently the vacumm pumped oil into the brake booster thus causing the brakes to fail. Fuel storage tank has had a leak in the upper seam which emits gas fumes when the tank is filled. I understand this has been a persistent problem with the Saab fuel tanks.
