SAAB Complaints

TAKATA RECALL--IT'S BEEN 9 MONTHS SINCE I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL, AND CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER. BUT I'VE RECEIVED NO FURTHER WORD. I LOVE THIS CAR, HOWEVER, I AM VERY CONCERN, SINCE MY WIFE USES THIS CAR EVER DAY TO GO TO WORK. IF, GOD FORBID, SOMEONE HITS THE CAR AND THE AIR BAG IMPLODES AND SHE IS INJURED OR DIES, YOU WILL BE SUED. WHEN IS THE PROBLEM GOING TO BE FIXED? VERY CONCERN OWNER AND HUSBAND!!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 SAAB 9-3. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V063000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART FOR THE RECALL REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE IN MARCH 2016. THE SAAB CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE CENTER CONTINUES TO TELL ME THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT IS NOT AVAILABLE AND "I SHOULD NOT WORRY BECAUSE THERE HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS WITH SAAB VEHICLES." HOWEVER, I OWN OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME RECALL, AND THOSE MANUFACTURERS HAVE BEEN ABLE TO OBTAIN THE REPLACEMENT.

TAKATA RECALL - ALTHOUGH THE RECALL BEGAN FEBRUARY 3, 2016, IT HAS STILL NOT BEEN COMPLETED. GIVEN THE DANGER OF BEING HIT WITH SHRAPNEL, THE SITUATION SHOULD BE REMEDIED IMMEDIATELY!

TAKATA RECALL. IT HAS BEEN 10 MONTHS SINCE THE RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND EVERY INQUIRY I MAKE IS MET WITH "NO PARTS AVAILABLE". THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I LIVE IN SC WHICH, TO MY UNDERSTANDING, IS A PART OF THE COUNTRY WITH A HIGHER CAUSE FOR CONCERN.

TAKATA RECALL - HEARD NOTHING FROM ANYONE ON HOW TO GET THIS FIXED. MY HUSBAND IS ON ANTICOAGULANTS - IF IN AN ACCIDENT WITH THESE AIRBAGS HE COULD BLEED TO DEATH. WE NEED THIS FIXED IMMEDIATELY. WHO DO WE CONTACT AND HOW CAN WE ENSURE THIS IS DONE QUICKLY?

TAKADA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE CADILLAC DEALERSHIP IN NORWOOD, MASSACHUSETTS THAT HE DOES NOT KNOW WHEN OR EVEN IF GM WILL REPLACE THE AIR BAG. GM HAS NOT CONTACTED DELEARSHIP WITH ANY INFORMATION.

TAKATA RECALL HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. THE DEALER HAS NOT YET RECEIVED THE AIRBAGS.
