Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 2000 s70 - multiple repairs and multiple recurring incidents of this same problem! check engine light comes on, engine runs rough, tach bounces and power deminishes becoming a sever hazard in high speed traffic. dealer found the problem to be "known issues" with the electronic air mass and throttle systems. replaced twice while under warranty, extended warranty denied, shortly out of warranty and problem returns again. dealership nor volvo will take any corrective action on >$1000 repair (which according to the service tech is almost guaranteed to return). this is my third volvo, and certainly my last.
