Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 1998 volvo s70 which has abs/trac light problems. i've been having intermittent issues with this where the indicator lights come on and the abs will sometimes pulsate and it makes a terrible noise. my understanding is that when the abs indicator is on, i don't have abs brakes. it appears from the volvo brickboard that a lot of people are having this issue. i am concerned about the safety (besides the fact that it is scary when the brakes start going) and think volvo should make the necessary repairs. it appears to be an issue only on this year/make. *tr
