2001 Wagon V6 < 100k 2nd Sid

Hi All:
I have 3 9-5 model Saabs and the SID display has been in issue in all of them. One had it replaced right after warranty after it was replaced under warranty. Now, our 2001 wagon that has been almost 100% dealer serviced is having a problem with the SID. I know about the possible quick fixes, but I thought I would give SAAB a chance to replace since I have 3 cars and this car has been dealer serviced.
I talked with Lamont (sp?) at SAAB USA and after a "review" they will not replace the sid. This is a $35k car new and with an almost 100% failure rate on the SIDs, this is simply a shame. I gave them a chance to back their product and they failed. I was looking at a new 9-5 aero, or non-aero but I don't think I will go any further. Not to mention the DIC problem and the sludge problem. All issues that should have had a recall, some did, but not the 1999 DICs (if I remember this correctly).
I am one of the biggest fans of the 9-5 platform old and new and now they are simply going to loose a sale and a Saab customer.
Anyone else able to get Saab USA to replace the SID?
Thanks for listening to my SID Saab Story
Probably no more Saabs and no more GMs….
