Takata Air Bag and Seat Belt Recalls

SAAB Takata Air Bag and Seat Belt Recalls – Morin Brothers Has Them in Stock!

The list of automobiles and trucks fitted with Takata Air Bags that are being recalled continues to grow, with many Saab and a few Saturn autos added to the list. Saab 9-3 models from 2003 – 2011 and Saab 9-5 from 2008 – 2011 are now a part of the giant recall that includes literally millions of cars and light trucks fitted with the Japanese air bags. To see if your car is included in this or any other recall, go to https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls. Have your vehicle identification number handy, as it makes the query a lot more precise and faser.

Because Saab’s dealership network is pretty much gone, Saab of North America has contracted with Morin Brothers Automotive to take care of recalled Saabs still on the road. Saab provides us with the parts and then reimburses us for the labor to install them. We typically have a dozen or more air bag assemblies in stock, as well as several seat belts for the Saab 9-3 convertible. We can almost always replace the air bag while you wait, but the seat belt assembly take several hours. Call Jesse or Elena at 805-541-2407 to book an appointment.
