MY LAST TWO AUTOMOBILES HAVE BEEN SAAB TURBO'S. MY 1993 SABB TURBO 9000 AND MY PRESENT 1995 TURBO 9000 BOTH DEVELOPED TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. MY FIRST ONE AT APPROX. 49,000 MILES AND PRESENT ONE AT 59,000 (APPX.) MILES. A PARTNER OF MINES ALSO HAD A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM WITH HIS SABB TURBO IN THE 60,000 MILE RANGE. SEVERAL MECHANICS HAVE TOLD ME THAT SABB HAD AND HAS PROBLEMS WITH THERE TURBO TRANSMISSIONS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND IF THERE HAVE BEEN ANY RECALL PROBLEMS ON THESE CARS.
