How to check if your Saab has a recall

A recall covers specific build dates and vehicle identification numbers (VINs), not every Saab on the road. To see whether yours is affected:

Look up your VIN or registration on the official recall checker for the country where the car is registered: DVSA (UK), NHTSA (United States), Traficom (Finland), KBA (Germany), EU Safety Gate (Sweden), NZTA (New Zealand).
Ask an authorised Saab dealer: recall repairs are free, including on used cars and cars serviced elsewhere.
Add the car to your watched vehicles on Recaller Book and get an email when a new campaign is published for it.

Full details for every campaign — defect, risk, remedy, affected build dates and the official notice — are in the database. Watching your vehicle is free: we email you when a new recall is published for it.
