Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The electronic throttle body has been replaced twice. once at 112000 and the other at 125000. the second time it failed, i was pulling into traffic and the car started 'lurching' forward. i pulled over and restarted the car to fix, but the ets light was on. it was fixed under volvo warranty from the first time which cost me $1200. this is also a safety issue as i was lucky that it happened when pulling into traffic and not merging onto hwy or interstate. *nm
