92x--The worst car Ive ever owned - 2005 Saab 9-2X
By nomore92x - April 13 - 4:00 pmIm leasing this car for two years. Ever since I got it, my arms, hands, shoulders, neck and back have been killing me. i finally figured out that it was the really hard seat pressing into my back causing the back pain and my hands jamming into the Saabs European seating design from the steering wheel, causing incredible pain. I am trying to get out of my lease. Saab has been no help. So now Im trying to just have someone take over the lease payments. I hate this car!! Never again with Saab. Im going back to Subaru!!

Electrical Problems - beware - 2005 Saab 9-2X
By Disgruntled Saab Man - January 23 - 9:06 amI had heard Saab was reliable and the new models did have pazazz and class. Wrong. Uncomfortable seats, and from the first I had problems with electrical. After setting for 3-4 days, the battery was completely dead. Then it would be fine for a month or so; then repeat the problem. The dealer was clueless. They replaced the battery and the alternator, which I told them was not the problem. I had a Jeep once with same problem. It was a wiring problem that drained the system. But, they knew best. Finally they offered me an insulting trade down to a used VW with outrageous payments. I took it to Carmax and got a Honda. Carmax is where I now buy all of my cars (Hondas). Great place.

Saabaru NOT at its Finest - 2005 Saab 9-2X
By KJReynolds - July 19 - 2:13 pmHaving owned 4 previous Saabs, this Saab is not their best by any means - nor is it up to Saab standards. I "downtraded" my Saab 9.5 Linear to save $150 on monthly car note - definelty not worth it! I drive 100 mi/day tho it is mostly highway driving. I feel every road bump - road noise - engine noise - not a comfy car by any means. Im getting worse gas mileage, 25mpg (is a 5 speed) compared to 30 on the 9.5 - and its a very small fuel tank annoys me to fill up every 3-4 days. Ive never driven a Subaru - but I think this car is a Saab in a Halloween costume. I just hope it ends up being as reliable as my others - it better make up for the lack of comfort.
