These are Transport Canada campaigns for 1991 Saab 9000 vehicles sold in Canada. A Canadian campaign may have no US counterpart, or one under a different number covering different vehicles. For a vehicle sold in the United States, go by the NHTSA listing above and NHTSA's VIN lookup.
ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, THE BALL OF THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTOR ARM MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PROPERLY FITTED TO THE SOCKET ON THE END OF THE GEAR SELECTOR CABLE, THEREBY ALLOWING THE TWO COMPONENTS TO SEPARATE. THIS WOULD RESULT IN A NON-FUNCTIONING GEAR SELECTOR. SINCE THE STARTER INHIBITOR SWITCH IS INSTALLED ON THE GEAR SELECTOR LEVER, THERE IS A RISK THAT THE VEHICLE CAN START MOVING EVEN THOUGH THE GEAR SELECTOR IS IN THE PARK OR NEUTRAL POSITION. CORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND, IF NECESSARY, ADJUSTED TO ENSURE THE SOCKET ON THE SELECTOR CABLE IS FIRMLY SECURED TO THE SELECTOR LEVER.

1991 Saab 9000 recall questions
NHTSA lists 1 recall for the 1991 Saab 9000 model year. That counts campaigns naming this model year, not recalls on your vehicle: many cover only a VIN range or production window. Transport Canada lists 1 Canadian campaign for the Canadian-market model, shown separately.
Enter your VIN in NHTSA's recall lookup or Saab's own, or call a Saab dealer with your VIN. Cardog uses your VIN only to find the model year; the recalls shown here are listed for that model year and are not matched to your VIN.
Not necessarily. Transport Canada campaigns cover vehicles sold in Canada. For a vehicle sold in the United States, go by the NHTSA listing and NHTSA's VIN lookup.
Safety recall repairs are normally done at no charge by an authorized Saab dealer. The manufacturer's notice for each campaign sets out the remedy and any conditions, so confirm with the dealer when you book.
Once Saab's lookup or a dealer confirms a recall applies, book the repair with an authorized Saab dealer and bring your VIN. If the manufacturer's notice says not to drive the vehicle or to park it outside, follow that instruction. Parts can take time, so book early.
Follow the manufacturer's notice for that recall. Most allow normal driving until the repair; some tell owners to stop driving or to park outside until it is fixed. Cardog does not grade recalls by severity: the manufacturer's notice and your dealer are the source.
Manufacturers must notify owners they have on record. If you bought the vehicle used or have moved, update your details with Saab so notices reach you, and check NHTSA's lookup from time to time.
