Brad,
I just went through the same thing..actually twice. Saab replaced my tranmission at 55,000 miles under warranty for my 2003 Vector. Unfortunately at 76,000 miles the anti-freeze mixed with my transmission and although it runs...the computer switches to limp mode..and eventually it will just totally turn off the car to protect the engine and other parts.
Best to Tow and not do more damage..assuming that it's a problem with the transmission, better to get a full diagnostics...normally they swap out transmissions....find a good dealer that can argue your case..but you may just end up with a $1500 coupon to buy a new GM car.
Personally, now I have a 2003 that needs around $4500 worth of work and wondering if it will be worth it. Just another Saab story.
