VOLVO Complaints

SHARP EDGE ON BOTTOM OF STEERING WHEEL METALLIC MOLDING CAUSED A INJURY. A LACERATION AND BLEEDING OCCURRED. INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE TURNING. WHEN STRAIGHTENING OUT OF THE TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS SLIDING PAST THE DRIVERS HANDS, CATCHING AND CUTTING THE SKIN OF THE DRIVERS FINGER. DRIVER NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AFTER PAIN CAUSED THEM TO RELEASE THE WHEEL FROM THEIR CONTROL.

BOUGHT THE VEHICLE WITH 112,000 MILES ON IT, IT HAS A GAS LEAK TRICKLING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE GAS TANK, PROBABLY A BAD SENDING UNIT, FUMES ARE BAD SOME DAYS BUT WORSE ON WARMER DAYS. THE TRANSMISSION FAILED ONE DAY WITH NO WARNING OR LIGHT, IT JUST LOST MOMENTUM AND FAILED TO ENGAGE IN DRIVE. I THINK THIS IS DUE TO THE POOR ENGINEERING DESIGN VOLVO USED. THIS MODEL IS THE T6 WITH THE GM 4T65E TRANSMISSION WHICH IS WIDELY KNOWN TO FAIL EVEN AT LOW MILES. I THINK A FULL SAFETY RECALL SHOULD E SANCTIONED FOR ALL MODEL YEARS WITH THESE HORRIBLE PROBLEMS

WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH OF LEASING THIS NEW CAR (< 250 MILES), BOTH LOW PROFILE OEM FRONT TIRES (235/40R-19 PIRELLI P ZERO ALL SEASON VOL VOLVO, KS, PNCS XL, PART NUMBER 3158400) WERE DAMAGED BY POTHOLES. I WAS TOLD BY ONE LOCAL TIRE SHOP THAT LOW PROFILE TIRES ARE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE. I HAVE NOT DAMAGED TIRES ON POTHOLES LIKE THIS BEFORE. VOLVO DOES NOT WARRANT THESE (UNLESS YOU PURCHASE THEIR EXPENSIVE ROAD HAZARD PACKAGE), AND PIRELLI'S WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE. THE NEW TIRES COST $536.34, AND THERE'S AN ADDITIONAL $25 PER TIRE FOR MOUNTING AND BALANCING.

FRONT WHEELS LOOSE FROM FACTOR AND DEALER DIDN'T CHECK, TIRES PSI 1/2 WHAT SHOULD BEEN , DRIVE SHAFT OUT OF PHASE . DAMAGE THE TRUCK MORE .I KNOW OF ABOUT 20 OF THESE TRUCK WITH THE DRIVE SHAFT PROBLEM . DEALER AND FACTOR WONT FIX/ THIS IS NOT SAFE

DRIVING HOME GOING 40 MPH THIS WEEK THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND I WAS ALERTED TO STOP THE CAR IMMEDIATELY. THIS FLASHED ON AND OFF TWICE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A GLITCH AS I HAD ANOTHER 1000 MILES TILL MY NEXT OIL CHANGE. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS DRY. I ADDED A QUART AND DROVE TO GET MY OIL CHANGED. RESULT WAS WHEN THEY DRAINED IT THERE WERE 2 QUARTS THAT DRAINED OUT. THIS INCLUDES THE QUART I HAD PUT IN. MY PRIOR OIL CHANGES I WOULD HAVE BEEN DOWN A QUART AFTER 5000 MILES. THIS IS SHOCKING! SEEING THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS I'M CONCERNED. LUCKILY I'M NOT HEARING KNOCKS AND MY CAR SEEMS FINE. I CALLED A VOLVO MECHANIC AND HE SAID TO CHECK THE OIL LEVEL EVERY MONTH. MY CONCERN IS THERE WAS NO EARLY WARNING THAT MY OIL WAS LOW. IF THE TIRE LOOSES AIR THERE ARE NON STOP WARNINGS.

INFOTAINMENT SCREEN REBOOTS CONTINUOUSLY AND NEVER COMPLETES LOADING, MAKING MANY CONTROL FUNCTIONS OF THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY INACCESSIBLE. THIS OCCURS DURING ANY TIME WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER IT IS STATIONARY OR MOVING.
