Other Fuel System Pump problem #1

The car stalled and came to a stop while traveling at 50 mph, thought it was battery. Got ride to parts store replaced the battery since it was cold weather and didn't want to leave vehicle on side of road. However, this was not the case. Car towed to local shop at a cost of $100. They hooked it up and said that it was the fuel pump and needed replaced costing $414. 54. Just received a letter couple weeks prior on recall of fuel pump retaining tabs that hold fuel lines to fuel pump. Looked up other complaints and find that stalling seem to be an issue with this model, could it have something to do with the fuel pump?.

Other Fuel System problem #2

Turbo malfunction at a cost of $455. 00 and also engine filter box. Vehicle still not running correctly. Will only go at speed of 25 mph. Repaired on 03/27/2018. Started out smoking all over the place from exhaust. Was told turbo went bad. I think a lot of these cars have this problem as I read on forums(SAAB,). That I have since joined. The SAAB has 139,000 miles. . I was driving on a city street at speed around 35mph. Started to smoke heavy,but once out of city as long as I drove 50 mph on highway smoke was dispersed from wind and made it home but when stopping for red light would buck and try to shut off. Smoke not good for environment. . . . . .
