No, very few failures of the V6 engine EXCEPT! Failure of the timing belt tensioner or pulleys which will lead to lots of damage of the valves in cylinder heads.
Since you have had all? services at the Saab dealer I assume they did the timing belt for free at 60,000 miles?
Try to find out exactly what happened to the engine and why they feel it was a bad engine.
Except for the timing belt issue, it seems to be a very durable engine.
