| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: We purchased a 2002 volvo s60 1/21/06 at 1:30pm with 58542 miles on it and 62 miles later at 6:54pm we were having problems with the accelerator pedal not responding, the engine accelerating wildly and then no control over the engine as it has gone into a limp mode. we shut the car off for 10 minutes and started the car up and it drove normally so we could get home. upon getting home and shutting the car off, the problems occurred again and the computer dispalyed no codes when plugged into diagnostic equipment. the problem happened again 1/22/06 and we called the used car dealer to have them pick the car up and they took the vehicle to their garage and i was informed 1/23/06 that there is nothing in the computer and the car is running fine right now. i informed them of the etm warranty which should be a recall and they are going to contact langhorne volvo to see if the parts can be replaced free of charge. this is a safety issue that needs a permanent resolution and not an extended warranty.*ak |
