While driving to work 28 april 2006 my 2002 saab 9-6 b308 v6 engine car began sputtering and the engine light came on.i made it into the parking lot where i work then proceeded to call a saab dealership.saab dealership mechanic stated that the car's computer put itself into "lame" mode and that the car was safe to drive to dealership (15 miles away)and that it was probably an ignition module.i simply pulled car onto the parking lot and it sputtered to a stop/stall, smoke came from the hood and it wouldn't restart.i had the car towed to the dealership.after the car had arrived at the dealership i was notified by the dealership that the defective part was an ignition module.after looking this information up i find that this part was defective in and recalled in over 100,000 saab's from 2000-2002 however after calling saab corporate they deny that this part is recalled in my particular make and year.my make, model, engine type and year however are listed as recalled on several web sites including your dot.gov web site.i had to pay $600 + dollars to have my car repaired and have the ignition module replaced as i need this car.after having the part replaced 2 days later the engine light came on; i immediately brought the car back to the dealership to find that they state the car now needs a new catalytic converter (as stated by the saab dealership) the cat converterwas warranted for 8 years or 80,000 miles but has broken after the 90,000 mile mark. I feel that driving the car when the ignition module has gone bad may have damaged the cat converter (as stated can happen if driving car with bad ignition module)
