Saab Recall: Fuel Line Defect and Fire Hazard
Saab is recalling 94,377 MY 2000 and 2003 9-3 convertible, MY 2003 9-3 sedan, and MY 2001-2005 9-5 estate and sedan vehicles. The fuel pump retaining tabs holding the fuel lines were damaged during production. Over time, this could cause the fuel lines to loosen from the pump resulting in fuel leakage. If an ignition source were present, the fuel may ignite resulting in a vehicle fire. Dealers will install a bracket that will secure the fuel lines to the fuel pump even if the plastic retaining tabs should break. The recall is expected to begin during April 2007.

Saab Recall: Engine Stall Risk
Saab is recalling 5,078 MY 2002-2003 Model 9-5 vehicles equipped with B308 6-cylinder gasoline engines. These vehicles may experience overheating and burnout of the isolated gated bipolar transistor (IGBT) within the ignition discharge module (IDM) due to increased susceptibility to electrical loads. Overheating of the IGBT occurs most often at engine start-up, but it may also occur while the engine is running. Engine stalling may occur, which could result in a crash. Dealers will inspect to see what version IDM is in the vehicle and replace the IDM if it is a version built prior to January 2003. The recall is expected to begin during December 2006.
