These are what fail, not the window itself. If you are unhappy with Saab power windows, I would have to ask what year Saab you have. If it is 1994 , then you have crappy GM electronic components. I have pre-1994 Saabs and Volvos. The 1986 Saab and 1982 Volvo used the same power locks and I suspect power windows. I don't know about the power windows because I haven't had a problem with them yet - even in the 182 Volvo. The power locks failed because the door was left partial open in a pouring rain and the power lock solenoid was flooded. The person who left the door open did not even apologize. . .
