The CCV failing if not being driven regularly at highway speed can be a huge issue if you are living in a cold climate. Can at best, hydrolock your engine, or at worst, like me....detonate your engine causing me to install a new one. HUGE money! Another issue can be the yaw sensor..not hugely expensive but required a removal of half the interior to replace. Another issue is the sensor pad for the passenger airbag can fail. Some were under recall, some we're not. Mine was not but I found a emulator system that was cheap and easy to install that still allows the bag to deploy but will also deploy if nobody is in the seat. I've heard of cooling system issues here and there. Have not had any other major issues otherwise. Great car, safe and comfortable..a huge gas hog, however. Taught my boys on a 2004 Saab 9-3 manual. Good luck.
