Recall 97V046000: Loss of Throttle Control/Binding

Corrosion around the zinc-coated throttle control lever bushing can cause the throttle lever to bind. This binding can result in the throttle plate not returning to the closed position when the throttle pedal is released and a subsequent loss of throttle control. Dealers will replace the zinc-coated throttle control lever bushing with a nickel-coated bushing and bolt.

Owner Notification: Owner notification is expected to begin May 1, 1997.

NOTE: Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact Saab at 1-800-955-9007. Also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Auto Safety Hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
