| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Driving home from northern wisconsin at 60 mph with the cruise control on. suddenly the ets (electronic throttle system) light of my 2000 volvo c70 went on, the cruise control went off and the car would intermittently lose power. i managed to get home and have a local mechanic look at it. he could not find anything and only replaced the gas filter. the following (last) weekend, making the same trip, the ets light went on and stayed on most of the trip. the cruise control would not work and the car performance declined dramatically. the day after i got home (mon, aug1) i took it to a volvo dealer who charged me $975 (!!) for a new ets. the car has only 55,000 miles on it. *nm |
