Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: All of the problems mentioned have shown up during my 2 year plus ownership of this 1994 volvo 940. the cruise control operated intermittently and when it does, if the car goves over a bump, it knocks out; antenna failed several months ago, assumed it was the power pack; the 4th gear sometimes kicks out on its own at startup and runs in 3rd, sometimes for days, others/hours; abs brakes sometimes skip a beat (or it's my heart) when going over little bumps while brake pedal is engaged or on slippery surfaces while brake pedal depressed. big problem, not safety related, with volvos, they drop hub caps readily and easily!*ak
