Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Abs computer chip was bad and needed to be replaced. my car has fewer than 60,000 miles. this component was not covered by the extended warranty and cost over $600 to replace. i have heard this is a common problem. if failure of the abs chip is as common as i'm told, then i believe volvo should pick up the cost for replacing this defective component in their vehicles.*ak
