RANT....1996 SE woes..bought from Saab dealer..

Hello, all...On March 14th, I purchased a 1996 900SET, 5-speed...89,000 miles....FROM a Saab dealer!!..Came with 1250 mile warranty....
I have had to have it towed by my AAA twice in the past week.
First...Serpintine belt went..Left me stranded 125 miles from the dealer..
Now...I am not sure what the problem is..but it was towed to the dealer AGAIN yesterday....
It needed new tires, which they made ME pay for....It passed inspection, but all four tires had dry rot on the entire outer lip...They told me that that's what you get when you buy a Saab for just $ 5,000.00.
There is a one inch " play " in the steering wheel, which they told me I have to live with, when my private mechanic told me it can be fixed..
My mechanic also told me the rotors are somehwat rusty and thinner than they should be.....My Saab dealer told me there is " at least 10,000 miles left on them, and, thats what you get with a $ 5,000.00 Saab.
Not only have I already used up two of my AAA plus towes for this year, but the aggravation of having to get a ride down to the dealer, and back home...eatting up the miles on my warranty.
I want them to just buy it back from me....I commute 110 miles every day for work and need a Saab thats reliable.
I have bought 5 cars from them since 1995, so we do have a history...and a good one....they are nice people..
BUT....How can I be compensated for all this aggravation?
Thnx...Please..ALL suggestions appreciated!
John
