The recall is real: more info

My selling dealer, Barrier Saab of Bellevue WA, confirms the recall. I talked with Saab USA, and they did the same. It is recall number 15007 and is described as "9-5 steering knuckle inspection". It came up on Saab USA's computer under my VIN. I have not yet asked why I had to find out about this problem on the bulletin board and approach them about it. The dealer advised not driving the car at all. Apparently, if you have a VIN involved in the recall, you can call Onstar roadside assistance and have your car transported to an authorized facility (165 miles one way for me). I believe, but have not confirmed, that Saab will pay for a rental vehicle while mine is out of action. I hope to get this solved with a minimum of hassle. I really like the car (2002 Arc Wagon) and am not going to get down on the marque because an outsource parts supplier made some bad parts.
