AIRBAG SENSOR IS ON INTERMITTANT . IF FRONT PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY, BACK SEAT SIDE RAIL AIRBAG WILL NOT INFLATE. NEEDS SOFTWARE UPGRADE. (JUST LIKE 2011 CADILLAC SRX). WHILE MOTOR ON.

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.

FUEL GAUGE STOPPED REPORTING ACTUAL LEVEL OF FUEL IN THE TANK ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. GUAGE REMAINS POINTED AT 1/4 FULL TANK LEVEL AT ALL TIMES. FORCED TO KEEP TRACK OF FUEL LEVEL BY RESETTING THE MILAGE TRACKER AT EACH TANK FILL-UP. WHEN MILES REACH AROUND 250 ITS TIME TO FIND A GAS STATION TO FILL UP AGAIN. HAVE RUN OUT OF GAS 5-10 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. SEVERAL OF THE SUDDEN "OUT-OF-GAS" EVENTS WERE ALSO FALSE. VEHICLE HAD GAS, BUT ENGINE STALLED AS THOUGH IT HAD RUN OUT OF GAS. CAR WAS PULLED TO THE SIDE OF INTERSTATE AND COASTED TO NEARBY GAS STATION.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2008 SAAB 9-3 AND THE FUEL READER LIGHTS UP AND SAYS IT'S EMPTY, EVEN WHEN THE TANK IT FULL. ALSO, THE DOOR LOCKS DOESN'T WORK WHEN UNLOCKING OR LOCKING THEM. THIS HAPPENS WHEN TRYING TO LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH REMOTE KEY AND WHEN YOUR LOCK OR UNLOCK IT FORM THE SINCE. YOU HAVE TO LOCK OR UNLOCK IT MANUALLY BY PULLING UP OR PUSHING DOWN WITH YOUR HAND. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND I CAME ACROSS A LOT OF OTHER SAAB 9-3 OWNERS THAT HAVE CAME ACROSS THE SAME PROBLEM. I THINK IT SHOULD BE RECALL SINCE I THINK IT SHOULD BE FAIR ENOUGH FOR SAAB TO FIX THE SITUATION.

I OWN A AUTO REPAIR SHOP AND WAS DRIVING A CUSTOMER VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE STREET AT 20-25 MPH WHEN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG EXPLODED.

AFTER A MINUTE I DECIDED I SHOULD PULL THE CAR A LITTLE MORE OFF THE ROAD , AS I WAS DOING THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG WENT OFF.
