ECU ISSUES, LOSS POWER WHEN DRIVING.
WHEN I USED MY CRUISE CONTROL SOMETIMES IT ENGAGES AND DOES NOT ENGAGE. IT DID THIS FOR OVER A MONTH. WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR, I DID MY RESEARCH ON IT AND IT SAID THAT IT HAS A STEERING FLUID LOSS PROBLEM, BECAUSE THE QUALITY IS POOR. I AM CURIOUS TO WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON IT YET.

TAKATA RECALL, I TOOK MY 06 SAAB 93 AERO INTO BELLEVUE WASHINGTON CADILLAC DEALERSHIP TO GET MY AIR BAG RECALL FIXED, AFTER I HOT THE RECALLED AIRBAG REPLACED THEY RESET MY ECM AND NOW MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON INTERMITTENTLY AND DRAINS MY BATTERY DEAD OVER NIGHT! I HAVE CALLED BELLEVUE CADILLAC AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THE DAMAGE THEY DID TO MY CAR BY REPLACING THE RECALLED AIRBAG WITH ANOTHER BAD AIRBAG! THEY LISTED IN THEIR COMPUTERS THAT THEY FIXED MY CAR AND NEVER DID SO NOW I AM STUCK WITH ANOTHER BAD FAULTY AIRBAG AND NOW A BATTERY DRAIN ISSUE FROM IT. MY CAR HAS BEEN LITERALLY UNDRIVEABLE SINCE THE DAY THEY REPLACED THE RECALLED AIRBAG. THE CAR ALSO HAS A FAILED GAS GAUGE DUE TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES FROM THE FACTORY WHICH WAS NEVER RECALLED, THE FUEL SENDING UNITS ARE BAD AND NEVER WORKED PROPERLY SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED WHICH ALOT IF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME SAABS HAVE EXPERIENCED ALL OVER THE WORLD!

I CONTACTED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN ELK GROVE, GMC AND ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THEY STATE THEY DO NOT SERVICE SAAB VEHICLES. I TOLD THEM THAT GMC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR IT AND THEY STATED THERE IS ONLY ONE LOCATION THAT WE COULD TAKE IT TO IN CENTRAL CALIFORNIA BY FRESNO IF I WANT TO GET IT FIXED. WHICH IT WILL BE AN UNDUE HARDSHIP. I ALSO TOLD THEM THAT OUR CAR WAS SPILLING GAS DUE TO AN ORIGINAL FAULTY UNIT. THEY STATED THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THAT HOWEVER, IT SOMEHOW DOESN'T SHOW ON MY VIN. SEVERAL TIMES WE RAN OUT OF GAS AND OUR KIDS GOT GASOLINE ON THEIR CLOTHES. WE CALLED 4 DEALERSHIPS AND ALL OF THEM STATE TO GO SOMEWHERE ELSE. WHEN I OPEN THE HOOD I SEE GMC BRAND ALL OVER THE CAR. I BELIEVE GMC IS DISCRIMINATING AGAINST PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES AND NOT ACCOMMODATING ME. I TOLD THEM I CANNOT DRIVE 300 MILES, I HAVE TO HAVE SOMEONE TAKE IT BECAUSE I HAD A STROKE. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY ARE GMC BUT THEY ARE NOT. IF THEY ARE USING THAT AS AN EXCUSE THEN THIS RECALL COMMITTEE SHOULD INVESTIGATE INTO THIS AND SANCTION THEM. AT THIS POINT, BECAUSE OF SAFETY RECALL IS NOT AVAILABLE TO GET IT DONE, I CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE WITH MY KIDS. 2 OF MY KIDS ARE SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS. AT THIS POINT, I WOULD LIKE GMC TO REIMBURSE ME THE FULL CURRENT VALUE OF THE VEHICLE FOR THEIR FAILURE TO DO THE NEEDED RECALL REPAIRS. IF GMC MADE A FAULTY BUSINESS CHOICE WHEN THEY TOOK OVER THE SAAB'S THE CUSTOMERS SHOULD NOT SUFFER. GMC CONSTANTLY MAKES ME FEEL THAT EVEN THOUGH70% OF THE VEHICLE IS GMC I DON'T HAVE THE SAME RIGHTS AS GMC CUSTOMERS. CURRENTLY, THE BLUE BOOK VALUE IS $6500. I'M STOPPING PAYING REGISTRATION IN HOPES TO GET THIS VEHICLE EITHER TRADED IN FOR ANOTHER ONE BY GMC OR REFUNDED. SINCE A RECALL IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE AN UNDUE HARDSHIP UPON, GMC IS DEVISING AND SCHEMING AND CHANGING POLICIES AND PROCEDURES TO DISCOURAGE CUSTOMERS TO GETTING SERVICE RECALLS TO SAABS.

FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - MY FUEL SENSOR GRADUALLY STOPPED WORKING AND NOW MY FUEL GAUGE IS NOT WORKING AT ALL. RECENTLY MY CAR IS HESITATING WHEN I ACCELERATE IN ALL 5 GEARS AND I WAS TOLD IT MAY BE THE FUEL PUMP OR FUEL LINE. LAST WEEK I TOOK IT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND WAS GIVEN A NOTIFICATION OF A RECALL FOR THE FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM. WHEN RESEARCHING THE RECALL BY THE VIN# IT IS NOT LISTED BUT IF I SEARCH BY MAKE AND MODEL IT IS LISTED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT.

I HAVE A 2006 SAAB 9-3 AERO. MY ENGINE LIGHT HAS COME ON. I HAVE TRIED TO GET THIS SERVICED SEVERAL TIMES. EACH TIME THE DEALERSHIP/OTHER MECHANIC RESETS THE CODES AND TELLS ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. NOW THEY TELL ME IT IS A EVAPORATOR CANISTER PURGE VALVE. THEY TELL ME THAT THE PART COSTS $425. NO LABOR INCLUDED. I HAVE FOUND THIS PART FOR UNDER $45. THIS IS CRAP!!! I HAVE EVEN FOUND TUTORIALS ON HOW TO DO IT, 1 HOUR JOB. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS FIXED SINCE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY TWO YEARS AGO. NOW THEY FIND THE PROBLEM? A LITTLE SUSPICIOUS IF YOU ASK ME! *TR
