| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: We own a 1999 volvo s70 awd sedan. we have been experiencing difficulties related to the lack of acceleration at unanticipated times or a sudden decline in power at other times. the ets warning light is on. this unexpected loss of acceleration is especially hazardous/dangerous when pulling out into traffic thinking that you have plenty of space and time only to find out that you cannot accelerate. i have forwarded my concern to volvo cars of america and received back a noncommittal response suggesting that we have it inspected. we did and the technician said that i should check with volvo as there has been some discussion of this problem in the newspaper. the codes that were identified included: ecm - 914f throttle unit internal fault ecm - 9150 throttle unit internal fault ecm - 91b7 throttle unit internal fault ecm - 903c throttle unit internal fault ecm - 903f throttle unit internal fault if this is a safety defect shouldn't volvo recall and replace this throttle unit? your assistance and response is appreciated. thank you, will brucker note: in the section below about the vehicle it say oem yes?no (i do not know what is being referred to therefore the answer has no relevance but it had to be answered with a yes or no.) the number of times this situation has occurred is numerous and the dates have been varied not just september 10, 2005. thank you. *jb *nm |
