Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This car has been nothing but a nightmare. it has required three tows from june 2001 to february 2002. the most expensive failure occurred the day after i had taken the car to a local dealer for a routine oil change (international motors, falls church, va), and the transmission and clutch failed because there was a transmission fluid leak that was not caught by their mechanics. i have contacted saab corporate by letter in december 2001 about my multiple problems with this car. their response by telephone was that there was nothing that they could do. *ak
