Key of Saab 93 (yr 2001) turned to off while driving high speed on highway, due O being lightly hit as passenger reached down for purse. All electric in car went off, was lucky to be able to go on side road since we were on I95 outside baltimore at 4 pm the day before thanksgiving! key operation appears to pose danger. Saab shop said key was operating normally.
