| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I began having trouble at about 22,500 miles in my new 2001 v70xc volvo. i noticed the car ran rough and shifted erratically and stalled. then i next had a significant experience with a sudden loss of power driving on the highway. i was out of town and was forced to have the car towed and obtain a rental car and accommodations. i had the car in and out of the shop with stalling problems as well as "intake" valve problems resulting in erratic shifting and rough running of this vehicle. it took several years and numerous trips to the dealership for repair. i recently had a very expensive repair done on the vehicle to resolve the problem. i submitted all my documentation to volvo customer service as well as the bills and expenses incurred with this problem. by the time the issue was resolved my new car warranty had expired ( how timely!) the volvo people were not willing to reimburse me for any of the repairs nor admit there was a problem with this model even though i had heard of other owners with similar problems. *jb |
