HI

I have a small issue with warranty after moving from one country to another. I bought my 9-7x last summer in Bahrain (middle east) and now moved to Estonia. As Saab is still new and driven less than 20kkm I was asking local Saab dealer about my warranty and got a message - not valid here. Do you have any experience / hints on moving with Saab? Any ideas what to do next? I do not need any repair at the moment, but good warranty is giving peaceful sleep:)

Any ideas how to "force" local dealer to accept my car under warranty are highly appreciated.

Regards
Märt

You can not force a dealer to warranty something that the local manufacturer will not warranty.
Afterall, the dealer only performs the warranty service ... the manufacturer pays the dealer to manage that relationship for them.

You need to have a discussion with your local Saab rep, not the dealer.

Sadly dealer is the Saab rep in Estonia - Probably need to find someone is Saab Sweden to ask further.

Thanks

I would call Svenska Bil AB here in Stockholm. They sell the 9-7x and just the other week did my first scheduled maintenance.

Call them on +46-8-505 692 00
