Unless you purchased a warranty on this vehicle, used cars are sold "as is" and you would have no recourse. If you did get a warranty, you would have to look at it to figure out what recourse, if any, you have. You cannot just cancel the contract, they gave you the car and you paid for it, or got financing. Saab filed bankruptcy many months ago and this fact was known when you purchased. Thus, the unavailability of parts was foreseeable. You must look to the contract for the sale to determine any recourse you may have according to it. It probably requires arbitration prior to filing suit, and is drafted heavily in favor of the dealership.
