are saabs reliable cars

nope get a vw

yes .as like bmw..

The newer ones are, the older ones not so much.

NOt like toyota or honda..

Yes but they must be well taken care of.

Swedish peices of S***!

overall saabs are great cars , but like other cars there is the occasional lemon.

look it up on consumer reports. The independant shop l work at refuse to.. no matter what year

No,they're just messy and lazy,and they just hang around the house watching T.V. in their underwear all day!

Reliable yes but as they age, they tend to get electrical problems and are super expensive to fix in terms of labour because the engine is backwards which makes it harder to work on.

l drive one. Yes they are however if something breaks it can get very expensive

the new ones are just rebadged chevy's.so not reliable at all..better than they were 10 years ago

l have known 3 people with saabs and all l ever heard was how expensive it was to fix. my landlord has one and cannot wait to get rid of it. it has not been that cold and it would not start so they had a gas heater warming up the motor so it would start. l have heard so many saab (sob) stories about these cars l would never own one

Depending on what year & model ur looking for depends on reliability for example, if u buy a 2006 SAAB 9-2X then yes very reliable, because it is really a Subaru, if u talking about 2000-2002 9-3 or 1999-2006 9-5 then here r the common problems-

From a professional point of view, SAAB repairs pays my mortgage. They have a couple issues that r common, throttle bodies (around every 80k miles), Ignition Discharge Module (IDM)(around every 70k miles), Fuel pump (around 130K miles), Sludge (depends on maintenance), Timing cover leaking oil (PCV plugged).

These r not to bad considering the mileage points, they r otherwise very reliable. Just plan for all these issues at the average mileage.
