NHTSA Complaint #738066 — 1992 SAAB 9000

ETS SENDS CAR INTO LIMP HOME MODE MAKING CAR VERY HAZARDOUS TO DRIVE. BRAKING SYSTEM HYDRUALICS ARE CONTROLED BY THIS UNIT AND ARE LIMITED. CAR STICKS IN CRUISE CONTROL MODE. SAAB HAS KNOWN OF THIS PROBLEM AND REFUSES TO RESOLVE IT. ABS HAS 4 SENSORS ON THIS MODEL 2 FRONT 2 REAR THE 2 IN THE REAR ARE HYDRAULIC AND HAS A PRESSURE SWITCH THE SWITCH GOES WHACKY AND GIVES FALSE READINGS..... THUS PUTTING MY ABS DUMBY LIGHT ON IN MY DASH. HAS A GAS PEDAL POTEINTIOMETER THAT IS VERY TEMPERMENTAL THUS GIVING BAD CODES AND CAUSING MY CAR TO GO HAYWIRE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR ANY OTHER SPEED..... I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 55-60 MPH AND THE CAR AND ALL IT'S COMPONETS SHUT DOWN EXCEPT THE MOTOR I COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH NO BRAKES OR STEERING THINKING MY CAR HAD STALLED AND IT WAS STILL IDLING . THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS CAR AND IT'S COMPONENTS WERE MAD BADLY , I FEEL SAAB SHOULD PUT A SAFETY RECALL ON ALL TCS COMPONENTS NOT JUST THE HYDRUALIC SWITCH. MY FIGHTINGS WITH SAAB ARE NO OVER AND I'M REPORTING TO A HIGHER AUTHORITY. THANKS FOR YOUR REVEIW OF THIS APPLICATION I HOPE TO HEAR FROM A ENGINEER AS SOON AS POSIBLE. *AK
