Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a 2001 volvo s80, 4 dr. sedan which i am in the process of trading in because on 3 different occasions this year (2005) the car stalled, the last time i needed to have it towed. after doing some research i noted that volvo had reached an agreement regarding complaints filed in california about the etm module. i believe that was the cause of my stalling. i did have the part replaced, at my expense and the mechanic showed me the part that would not stay closed consequently causing the car to stall. at no time was there an indication that there was a problem - no warning light. while i love the car, i don't feel i can trust it even though a new part was put in. according to the volvo dealer, part would not be replaced unless warning indicator came on. the last time the car stalled was thanksgiving night. *nm
