2004 SAAB 9-3 ARC review from North America
"Not worth the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- Peeling emblems.
- Window malfunction - would go up and come back down, had to have car re-programmed numerous times.
- Coolant level low - at least once every three to four months.
- Radio does not work.
- Have had to replace battery two times in past three months, still cannot find what is causing problem. Constantly have to have car jump started.
- Car runs great, just too many electrical issues to deal with, and gets very expensive to repair.
