[Saw] If you fail to solve one of Jigsaw’s puzzles but survive whatever death trap it sets off, will Jigsaw let you live?

I’m talking about the John Kramer Jigsaw. Iirc his entire backstory was that he survived a deadly car crash and targets people who don’t appreciate life. 

I know it doesn’t apply to every victim but assuming you do survive his death trap, would he show you mercy and let you live or just finish you off?

Beating the traps aren't exactly the point of his designs. The point is to bring about a mental and philosophical change in you. A taste of your own medicine or having to face the consequences of your decisions kinda thing. So long as jigsaw feels the lesson was learned or at least imparted he'll consider it good enough. It's only his assistants that created kill only devices rather than puzzles and his own ideation of death and mortality to create deadly traps. The first film showed several traps that were easily survivable albeit they'd usually maim or disfigure anyone that disarmed them. Most jigswa originals while deadly aren't intended to kill the person just bring them so close to death they'll either give up and die or fight tooth and nail to live. Assuming you botched your escape but the trap didn't kill you he'll open the way for you to escape at leave it up to your own drive to survive. Maybe you fight hard enough to live maybe you don't. Jigsaw will take it as his goal being accomplished just not how he envisioned it.
