On two occassions, it was necessary to bring the Saab to a quick stop on the freeway. On 3/25/00, I needed to make an emergency stop, going 65 mph and the car seemed to almost slide, not gripping the road. I have been driving for 25 years, and had to make emergency stops in the past, and have never had this experience. I believe the Saab 9-3's should be checked for ability to stop in an emergency. Also, my airbags did not deploy in the accident.
