VOLVO Complaints

THE VEHICLE'S WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN LEAKING WATER THROUGH THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD. WHEN IT RAINS, THE WINDSHIELD LEAKS ALL OVER. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING FORUMS AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL OF VOLVO BUT HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL. IF THIS CONTINUES I'M AFRAID SOMEONE DRIVING COULD LOOSE VISIBILITY IF ITS RAINING. EVEN THROUGH THE CARWASH THIS VOLVO MODELS LEAK WATER. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 VOLVO S60. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE VOLVO STORE LOCATED AT 1051 WEST WEBSTER AVE, WINTER PARK, FL 32789, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V303000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) WAS REFERENCED HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

WHEN CRANKING IT STALLS AND CUTS OFF AND AFTER DOING IT AROUND 10 TIMES IT FINALLY CRANKS THEN I HAVE TO HURRY TO PUT IN DRIVE TO GET THE MOTOR GOING IN ORDER TO KEEP HER CRUNK AND COUPLE WEEKS AGO BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM SHE STALLED OUT AND I HIT A HOLE IN THE ROAD AND BUSTED THE OIL PAN SO SHE HAS BEEN PARKED EVERY SINCE CAUSE I HAD MY DAUGHTER IN THE CAR AND THAT WASN'T A PRETTY SIGHT SINCE THE HIT MADE HER NERVOUS NOW CAN'T GET HER TO GET IN THE CAR SO I NEED MY CAR FIXED AND I SEE IT HAS SEVERAL RECALLS AND ALL AND IT WAS ON A COUNTY STREET ONCE I GOT IT CRUNK BACK UP IT SMOKED BADLY TILL I TURNED IT OFF AND IT TOOK FOUR HOURS FOR ME TO GET IT OUT THE ROAD

ME AN MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR AN IT STARTED TO RUN HOT SO WE WENT AN GOT THE PART TO GO ON THE CAR AN WHEN WHEN WE GOT BACK TO MY FATHER IN LAW HOUSE THE CAR CUT OFF AN STARTED TO SMOKE REAL BAD THEN WENT INTO FLAMES AN WHEN WE FIRST GOT THE CAR WE GOT EVERYTHING FIX ON IT AN THEN WHEN YOU PLUG THE MONTIOR TO THE THE CAR IT SAID WE HAD TEN CODES UP THERE AN THEY WAS THE SAME CODES THAT WAS ON THE CAR AN WE KNOW WE HAD GOT EVERYTHING FIX ON THE CAR AN WE WAS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR NO WE OUT OF A CAR CAUSE IT WENT INTO FLAMES.

2019 COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER ABOUT UNEVEN WEARING OF THE FRONT TIRES THEY CHECKED ALIGNMENT THEN SAME COMPLAINT IN MARCH 2020 NO DEFECTS FIND THEN IN JULY 02 2020 I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE BECAUSE OF VIBRATION , AFTER INSPECTION THEY FOUND PLASTIC BUSHINGS FOR BOTH KINGPINS WORN OUT AND REPLACED AS WHOLE SETS. MY COMPLAINT IS ABOUT PREMATURE FAILURE COMPONENTS AT 300000 MILES DUE TO USE OF PLASTIC BUSHINGS BY MANUFACTURER. TRUCK WAS USED ON HIGHWAYS NOT AS A VOCATIONAL TRUCK

AFTER DRIVING 19,000 MILES IN 22 MONTHS, I HAVE BEEN TOLD ALL BRAKE PADS NEED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF OVER $600. I LEASED THE VEHICLE WITH 6,000 MILES, THUS THE CAR NOW HAVE 25,000 MILES. IT SEEMS THESE XC60 HAVE A BRAKE PAD PROBLEM, THUS THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED!

I HAVE 86,585 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAVE FOLLOWED OR EXCEEDED THE MANUFACTURES RECOMMENDATION ON OIL CHANGES. NOW I AM TOLD AFTER MY LAST OIL CHANGE THAT THE ENGINE IS CONSUMING A LOT OF OIL. AT 80,000 MILES MY VOLVO DEALERSHIP CHANGED THE TYPE OF OIL THEY WERE PUTTING IN THE CAR FROM 5W-30 FULL SYN. TO 0W20 FULL SYN. I BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE AND VOLVO KNOWS IT BY TRYING TO STOP THE OIL USAGE BY CHANGING THE TYPE OF OIL THEY RECOMMEND. WHAT DO I DO IF I HAVE A ENGINE PROBLEM WITH MY CAR ???

THE CAR HAS INTERMITTENT NOISE COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE HUB BEARING. THE DEALER AND VOLVO CORP REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE AND EVEN PUT THE CAR ON THE LIFT. IF HUB WILL SEIZE IT CAN CAUSE A BIG ACCIDENT IF IT WILL BE ON THE HIGHWAY . ALL THE DEALER AND VOLVO RAP DID WAS DROVE THE CAR AROUND THE BLOCK DIDN'T HEAR THE NOISE AND REFUSING TO DIAGNOSE MORE AND REPLACE THE FAULTY PART. VOLCO CORP CLOSE THE CASE ON THIS ISSUE AND REFUSING TO OPEN ANOTHER ONE. MEANWHILE THE CAR NOT VERY SAFE TO DRIVE. SAME ISSUE WAS WITH LEFT SIDE AND IT TOOK VOLVO MONTH TO FINALLY REPLACE IT EVEN THEY HERD THE NOISE BUT DIDNT WANNA BELIEVE IT WAS THE HUB. DEALER IS KUNDERT VOLVO OF HASBROUCK

WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, GOING DOWN A STEEP (APPROXIMATELY 10 DEGREE DECLINE) THE NO OIL PRESSURE ALARM WAS TRIGGERED AND SYSTEM INSTRUCTIONS TO PULL OVER AND STOP ENGINE IMMEDIATELY. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE CLOSEST VOLVO DEALER AND IT WAS DETERMINED THE PISTON RINGS HAD FAILED/WERE FAILING LEADING TO RAPID, EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. VOLVO HAS BEEN AWARE OF FAULTY PISTON AND OIL CONTROL RINGS IN THEIR ENGINES MADE FROM 2012-2016 AND HAVE DEVELOPED A REMEDIATION PROCEDURE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE DESIGN FLAW IN THESE VEHICLES WHICH COULD RESULT IN ENGINE SEIZURE. *TR

THE PASSENGER DOOR HAS, ON AT LEAST TEN OCCASIONS, PARTIALLY OPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS MOVING . IT OPENED IN THE FIRST PHASE LIKE IT IS WHEN NOT FULLY CLOSED. MY MECHANIC SAYS THE LATCH IS BAD AND WILL AT SOME POINT OPEN ALL THE WAY. VOLVO DOES. OR SEEM ANXIOUS TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. WHEN THE VOLVO DEALERSHIP REPAIR WAS TOLD OF THE PROBLEM ON AT LEAST TWO,OCCASIONS, THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PROBLEM.
