A/C stopped working again at 33,000 miles.
Driver's side seat had be replaced.
A/C knob broke and had to be replaced.
Passenger side vent broke and had to be replaced.
This car rides nice. I find the feedback the steering wheel provides is just the right amount.
It's a real shame that this car's reliability isn't better than previous models. I was warned by many of my freinds about buying a SAAB, however, I made the assumption that progress was on my side. I figured that by now SAAB would have gotten things right.
I was wrong!
I agree with this review! Almost everything that could go wrong with my 1999 Saab 9-3 has! It is a shame, because the car is a joy to drive. However, this does not make up for the fact that the car has constantly broken down, stranded me, and given me nothing but grief.
