problem #2

Aug 262011

9-5

  • 46,172 miles
A recall was previously issued for Saab direct ignition cassette failures for model years 2000 through 2002. My 2004 Saab 9-5 arc, which has 46,180 miles on it, had to have the di cassette replaced today due to failure. My model year should have been included in this recall due to the limited (less than reasonable) life of the part.
