| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I own a 2001 volvo v70 <turbo> .. and have had repeated experiences with the vehicle either stalling while in gear and / or "surging" forward while at a stop with the brake pedal depressed ... the vehicle has been brought to an authorized volvo repair shop and to the dealer for these problems a minimum of 4 times upon the return of my vehicle to me <after having work done under campaign 155> the vehicle exhibited the same problems .. the most recent event having taken place on 08.08.06 at this most recent incident i had my two granddaughters in my vehicle and i believe that this event put all our lives in danger .. this is definitely a safety issue / hazard ! i <yesterday> placed a call to the dealership <bozzani volvo in covina, ca> only to be given the "run-around" from jon, tony, and gloria ... jon burnham suggested that i let them have my vehicle to drive until the "problem" is duplicated .. gloria masterly <a service advisor> said i should not take my car to my local volvo approved repair shop ... that i should have it towed to them, instead <which i have already had done <having it towed> both thru asc at no charge ... and at my expense numerous times> tony rivas told me that he had to make a call and that he would get back to me ... no one got back to me ... nor has anyone <as of nearly 12 noon, today < returned a call to me ... i have been made aware of the existing <and well known> issues with the magnate marelli etm and am appalled at the devil may care attitude that volvo is taking towards this whole affair i bought volvo <this being our third> because of their reputation for safety ! i am now afraid to drive my car ... and am receiving no assistance from any volvo advisors or representatives i am nearly 80 years old .. and would hate to lose what years i do have left to an avoidable problem which may very well take my life <as well as others, possibly> |
