Comments
2/27/2011 - shammy
many problems with it (this is our 20th Volvo and we are quite disappointed in this one. Just waited 1 month for parts. some of the many problems:
-doors don't always lock - some do , some don't
-strange spring sound noise when first back up and then go into drive
-heater takes over half an hour to produce heat
-bluetooth cuts out
-wipers noisy
-BLISS on most of the time and then doesn't come on when care present
-heating knobs are almost impossible to turn on occasion
-AWD doesn't seem to work (not anywhere near as good as past models)
-pulls to left strongly (right from the beginning)
-very loose ride = not pleasant on bumpy winter roads - even on highway
-dealer never fixed on before - parts not available ("on the boat somewhere")
