Regular oil change is a routine when taking care of your car.

Belts and Hoses Replacement

Belts and hoses are involved in a process within the cooling system, charging system, A/C system, and engine. If they snap, they can leave your Saab stranded.

Driveline Repair

The most outstanding feature of the Saab is its front-wheel drive that allows you to literally aim the car where you want to go. Keeping it in pristine condition is the best way to ensure that you will enjoy a safe ride with your Saab. Removing the old lubricant and replacing it with a new differential fluid will provide all these parts to run smoothly.

Tire Replacement and Rotation

Replacing your tires (usually in sets of two or four) when you notice the wear indicators are below minimum will prevent the damage of the drivetrain. Even with a regular tire rotation schedule, tires will eventually need to be replaced. At RG Brakes & Alignment, we will inspect your tire wear and recommend the proper tires for your Saab model.

FAQs

Are Saabs Expensive to Repair?

Saabs have an average maintenance cost of $612 per year for a mid-tier model. Repair and maintenance costs vary depending on mileage, age, location, and shop. Despite being a dead brand, Saabs are not expensive to maintain because some newer models share many parts with General Motors vehicles.

How Reliable are Saab Cars?

Yes, they are reliable, with solid overall body construction and excellent fuel economy. They have a reputation for having high performance, quality, and comfort. However, Saabs are not without issues.

What Are the Most Common Saab Problems?

There are some areas Saab do not make the cut, for example:

  • The fuel level sensor: while dropping the fuel level during a ride has nothing to do with the car’s drivability, it is still a nuisance not to know the right fuel level.
  • The suspension: One of the mounts connected to the steering wheel tends to wear out quickly. It is not a significant issue unless left unfixed for a long time.
  • The electric throttle body: This little piece starts to work less effectively, controlling the engine airflow after a few miles. It can lead to engine heat up, causing more serious issues.
