New and Hot in year 2004 from SAAB car models?
2004
SAAB Allroad
Saab continues to fine-tune its 9-5 lineup of SportWagons
to give customers more value in a
luxurious midsize package.
Enhancements for 2004 include an even more sporting personality
for the Arc models, more aggressive exterior revisions to the high-performance
Aero models and more stand-alone content.
Saab continues to offer the 9-5 in three distinct model
designations, or "forms": the 185-hp Linear, the 220-hp Arc
and the 250-hp Aero.
Each form is matched with unique interior trim, upholstery,
wheel package and powertrain.

No Charge Maintenance
Scheduled Maintenance Program
All 2003 Saab Models* are covered under the Saab No Charge
Scheduled Maintenance Program for 3 years or 36.000 miles, whichever comes
first, provided you have your Saab serviced at an authorized Saab dealer
in the United States.
* This program applies to all 2003 Saab models initially
sold in the US and covers all factory-recommended scheduled maintenance
(excluding wear and tear items) for the above period, as outlined in the
Warranties and Service Record Booklet. This program is associated with
this particular vehicle, regardless of owner. This program is not transferable
to another vehicle. The Saab No Charge Scheduled Maintenance Program may
be terminated for future Saab vehicles at any time without notice.
Warranty and Support
The Saab new car limited warranty includes:
- Bumper-to-bumper coverage for 4 years or 50,000 miles.*
- Adjustment and wear item coverage for 1 year or 16,000 miles.*
- Seat belt and supplemental restraint system coverage for 5 years,
unlimited mileage.
- Perforation warranty for 6 years, unlimited mileage. (9-5 and 9-3
Convertible)
- Perforation warranty for 10 years, unlimited mileage. (9-3 Sport
Sedan)
*Whichever comes first. See your dealer for details on this
limited warranty.
Saab cars are renowned for their outstanding longevity and
durability. Your Certified Pre-Owned Saab includes one of the industry’s
most encompassing warranty packages. First, the remaining balance of the
factory 4-year/50,000 mile (whichever comes first) original new-car limited
warranty automatically transfers to the new owner. Also transferring to
the new owner is the balance of the factory 6-year/unlimited mile new-car
corrosion protection limited warranty.
In addition, your Certified Pre-Owned Saab qualifies for
a comprehensive Saab Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty*, up to 72 months/100,000
miles (whichever comes first) from original in-service date, which provides
coverage that goes into effect after the original factory warranty has
expired. This coverage is fully backed by Saab Cars USA, Inc.
And just like a new Saab, all Certified Pre-Owned cars include
a final element of reassurance: a comprehensive Roadside Assistance program.
Should you experience car trouble, help is just a phone call away. Saab’s
much heralded Roadside Assistance program includes full 24 hour coverage,
365 days a year, anywhere in the United States. And best of all, it’s
yours at no additional charge for the duration of the warranty. In the
unlikely event that you need to use it, you can count on assistance with
changing a flat tire, a jump-start, fuel delivery, towing – even
locksmithing service.
* Exclusions from the original factory warranty apply. See
your retailer for details. Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty period
commences from the original In-Service date and lasts 6 years or 100,000
miles, whichever occurs first. Items excluded from coverage under this
Limited Warranty are listed below. Coverage terminates upon failure to
satisfy care and service requirements as described in manufacturer’s
original limited warranty. Refer to the original limited warranty for
other limitations. Exclusions include but not limited to minor adjustments,
wiper blades, drive belts, brake pads and rotors, clutch discs, telematics,
audio equipment, batteries, tires and all other exclusions as described
in the original limited warranty.
It’s a Saab . . . not merely pre-owned, but "tried
and true."
Saab ownership provides the experience of driving one of
the finest cars in the world, offering luxury, performance, safety and
levels of durability that are legendary the world over. Isn’t it
time you drove a Saab too?
A new Saab isn’t always affordable for everyone. Now
there is an alternative – the Saab Certified Pre-Owned program.
A Saab Certified Pre-Owned vehicle offers many of the same
advantages of a new Saab – at significant savings over a similar
new model. A great way to drive an incredibly durable car that’s
not so much pre-owned as "tried and true."
And at Saab, a top priority is customer satisfaction. You
can count on superior service from the moment you approach a Saab retailer
and throughout your entire ownership experience.
*The Saab Certified Pre-Owned limited warranty period commences at the
time of sale of a Certified Pre-Owned Saab or upon expiration of the applicable
Saab New Vehicle Limited Warranty, whichever occurs later. This Saab Certified
Pre-Owned Limited Warranty expires 6 years or 100,000 miles from the original
in-service date, whichever occurs first. Call 1 800 SAAB USA for important
details and exclusions of the Saab Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty
Program.
Certified Pre-owned
Only the best pre-owned Saabs are eligible to be Certified.
To begin with, a Certified Pre-Owned Saab must satisfy a long list of
requirements: the vehicle must be less than four years old, and it cannot
have more than 60,000 miles on the odometer. And not only must the Saab
be in excellent mechanical condition at the onset, but it must meet high
visual standards as well.
Any of the following will immediately eliminate a vehicle
from the Saab Certified program:
Over 60,000 miles
Older than 1999 model year
Warranty claim inquiry discrepancy
Unresolved problem found on AutoCheck Vehicle History Report
TMU (True Mileage Unknown) odometer reading
Frame, fire, and/or flood damage
From there, factory trained Saab technicians take over and exhaustively
flight check and update the vehicle. Through a rigorous and extensive
110-point inspection/refurbishing process, each Saab is inspected, reconditioned
and detailed to ensure that it meets the highest possible standards –
indeed, as high as your standards. Only then can it be Saab Certified.
