Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2000 saab 9-5 se, 6 cylinder engine. while driving my car simply stopped running in the middle of traffic. once towed to the service center it was determined that the coil pack on half of the cylinders was at fault. this was replaced. i have learned that saab has recalled the 4 cylinder coil packs but not the 6 cylinder version. even though the 4 and 6 cylinder version are different, i would expect the manufacturing of these to be very similar. i have heard rumors from repair shops of a high failure rate of the 6 cylinder version too, as in my case.
