The engine on my 2005 SAAB 9-3 has failed two times within the first 4900 miles on the odometer. The first failure occurred in June of 2005 and the problem was diagnosed as a throttle body failure. The failure results in the car accelerating extremely slow without any prior notice. The second failure occurred on July 18, 2005 when I was nearly hit making a left hand turn. The same symptoms presented without any indication that there was a failure about to occur. I have researched the Saabnet website and it appears I am not alone in falling victim to the defective throttle body in the SAAB 9-3 model. It appears to be a pervasive problem. SAAB's attorney indicated that this did not rise to the level of a recall nor a problem that require replacement of the vehicle.
