Product Reviews:

In the Details and Restrictions of the Volvo Carefree Coverage it states "for low mileage vehicles (Service will be covered provided they are serviced within 2 months of their anniversary date). (In service anniversary.) My in service date was January 6th - when I tried to book the final service on January 28th, they would not provide the service claiming the program had expired even though I was well within the two month requirement outlined in their Details and Restriction as stated above. Their wording in misleading to consumers and they should clarify it to indicate that their policy does not apply to the final service and that service has to be provided prior to the in service date. Very poor customer relations.

Last Tuesday, May 15, 2012, I took my 2002 S80 T6 Volvo to the Volvo service center on a recall for the fuel pump (throttle body). After driving a few days later, I went to start my car and it wouldn't start. So I made an attempt to start it again and it started and then it shut off. After going through this several times, it finally started. Now, it has gotten worse. I have all these warning lights on and my car is running sluggish. I try to accelerate on the highway and it feels like it wants to stall.Today, I called the 800 customer service number to report it. I also called the dealership and reported it. I was told that I would have to pay for this to be repaired. I read several articles regarding this problem and feel that my car meets the need to be repaired. It’s a real safety issue. I have two kids that I transport daily to school and other school activities, and I use it to get me to work. I need the assurance that I can get them and myself to our destinations safely and without stressing that I will hope to make it. I am afraid and do not know if my car is going to stall on the highway or at an intersection. I like my Volvo and I want it to run like a Volvo should. I hope this matter can be resolved without any legal representation.

Volvo XC90 customer service failure: I had clicking sound in rear axle (97k miles). I took it to the dealer who said it was either an angle gear sleeve or angle gear assembly failure. They said if I paid them $2100 in labor first, they would try to get corporate to cover parts (clearly they know it is a problem). But they could not guarantee corporate would pay for parts. So, I was facing a $5000 bill ($2100 in labor and $2900 in parts) to fix a poorly designed part (check the web, there are many failures of angle gear). Dealer said they have had to replace a number of these. I wonder how many.No thanks! I called a local repair shop who quoted $469 (parts and labor) to replace angle gear sleeve. I called back again just to make sure of the price. The local shop said they replace them 'all the time.' They showed me the problem. It is a poor design that allows water to get into angle gear sleeve causing rust and premature wear (or planned obsolescence).It turns out both the angle gear sleeve and angle gear assembly were worn out. Local shop bought parts from dealer at cost of $2400 ($500 less than dealer quoted). Total repair cost was $2850 compared to dealer quote of 2100 and maybe corporate would cover parts. You can see from the picture rust on splines of angle gear sleeve. By the way, the dealer has a core charge for the angle gear assembly so that all their faulty parts get returned. I went back to dealer and tried to see if they could get Volvo Cars corporate to cover parts. They said no. I then called Volvo Cars Corporate directly for help. I got the same. They said the part is not part of recall and that they could not (really would not) do anything.How many failures are needed before a recall? If you check the web, there are hundreds. This means there are really thousands, since only a few people are angry enough, like me, to post their frustration. Both the Volvo dealer and Volvo corporate had an opportunity to do the right thing. What a shame they didn't. Now, not only will I never go to dealer for service, I will forever tell people not to buy a Volvo!

I have a Volvo XC90 T6 AWD 2002. It sucks. I've had nothing but problems with it since the day I bought it. Unfortunately, I can not afford to get rid of it. I'm scared every time I drive it and pray that I'll get where I'm going safely. I've spent thousands of dollars on repairs at the dealer. Thank God I bought the extended warranty, not once but twice. I replaced the transmission at 75k miles. New tires are worn out at 25k miles. It goes through brakes like toilet paper. I've replaced rotors, drums, motor mounts (twice). The dashboard/radio area gets incredibly hot (so hot to touch it almost burns your fingers). It heated up my cell phone so much in the little stash area that my phone quit working. It's a wonder it doesn't burst into flames. I have had so many problems with it I can not even count them all. I take it to the same dealer so he can print out a record of all of the repairs. Every time I go there, it cost me a fortune. One time it was nearly $5000 and that was with the warranty payments. I just spent another $1200 on it. Now, driving here in the rain, it started making this high-pitched shrill noise like you wouldn't believe. It's done that before so I think it must have something to do with the traction control. Anyone else had that shrill sound with traction control in rain or snow? I would like to have a class action lawsuit and at least get Volvo to give me what I owe on it so I can go get something else.

On December 14, 2013, I purchased, a Volvo Protection Plan, application number # **, from the business manager, ** of Volvo of Lisle. On December 20, 2013, a check for $201.00 was issued, to Paylink Payment, and mailed to him. On April 16, 2014, I received a letter from Volvo stating that Contract No. **, had not been received for processing within the 60 days of written date. It should be noted, that I have spoken to **, on several occasions, over ten times, regarding this matter. On each occasion, he assured me that the contract had been submitted and was taken care of. As of this date, May 12, 2014, I have no coverage. I am very disappointed with Volvo and ** and have since changed my service to Volvo Of Oak Park.

My 2010 Volvo is currently at the dealer for windshield replacement due to leak above the driver's side. I returned to my car after heavy rain and snow to find water dripping from the ceiling and a sizable pool of water on the driver's side floor. My car is no longer under warranty, so the dealership is charging me for the replacement of the windshield. I was told that a re-seal was not sufficient, therefore, an aftermarket windshield would be ordered and installed since the original broke upon removal which costs $450-$500 plus $250 to install. The service department rep. has kept me informed throughout the process, however, that has not lessened the financial impact on me due to Volvo's faulty manufacturing process and materials.I will definitely be contacting Volvo North America and seeking legal guidance. I just purchased this vehicle 'as is' from the dealership in July of this year. Although I enjoy my new XC60, I will not endorse nor buy another Volvo if such defects are not corrected and additional issues arise. Safety and reliability should not be a concern especially in less than 6 months after purchase. The company must compensate customers for failure to secure reliably manufactured vehicles. Too many hard working consumers have unjustly paid for a subpar product.

I bought a used Volvo XC90 2004 with 45,000 miles on it. Shortly after purchasing it, I had to replace a leaking fuel pump and power steering pump. Volvo recalled the fuel pump, so they reimbursed me for that part.Half of the lights on the radio panel are out, the shifter knob broke, the passenger seat has had to be re-sewn twice, the leather on all seats cracks in spite of using good conditioners, the head liner is lifting off, and now, the gas cap isn't keeping its seal and has to be replaced.I've owned Volvos for the last 20 years and I've had several models. This one is definitely not the Volvo of yesteryear. I've also noticed the car gets dents and the paint chips easily. Every trip to a parking lot seems to leave its mark. These cars used to be hard to put a ding in.

I recently drove a Volvo V90; it is quiet, easy to manage on a road or highway; enjoyable to drive. My only concern is that, since Volvo is now Chinese owned (again, Chinese owned), I am not certain they can be trusted to honor warranty issues. I brought this up with the manager and he laughed and said 'If you're talking about Covid-19 and its relationship to the quality of this car and whether a warranty on it will be honored, it is a moot issue.' I am not convinced and really didn't even have the question addressed. As a result, I moved on and bought a good Japanese Acura RDX. It is an excellent, upscale, mid-sized SUV.

Bought this car as a certified used car when it was 3 years old, in addition bought extended warranty for additional 5 years or 75,000 miles whichever comes first. It just turned 5 this month. Only 2 years into extended warranty, have another 25,000 miles or so left too. Warranty work since purchase included tire air pressure sensors, few minor things. Had been very happy until last week. Took in for regular maintenance to Weaver Volvo in Raleigh, NC, mentioned I'd been smelling a musty/moldy smell when I turn on my a/c after not driving for few days, I suggested maybe the cabin filter needed changing. The service rep found the cabin filter should have been changed as part of my last service there, but was not done.In addition, they found that my windshield was leaking above the driver's side, and could actually be lifted up from the Inside! Both extended warranty and Volvo refused to fix it, giving me the name of recommended auto glass place, stating it was a "wear" issue. I stated it was not a wear issue, but a manufacturing and or Install issue. Doing my research, I've found lots of Volvo owners complaining about the very same thing! Volvo knows there is a problem, but does nothing about it. When I contacted the auto glass dealer, I was told they will not even attempt just a reseal, because it fails, because the priming on the oem windshield is defective. They receive calls from many Volvo customers with same problem every week. They will only install a new windshield, brand new install due to their experience with Volvo windshields, breaking, and reseal failures. I decided to not deal with another OEM windshield, as the primer issue appears to be ongoing.I'm very likely to have the same problem... seen other posts where customers have this same issue 2 or 3 times in a row when replacing a Volvo windshield with another Volvo windshield. I'm going with Pilkington, made in the USA, and has not had these problems leaking. It is going to cost me over $500 for a new windshield installation. I'm contacting Regional Service Manager about my discontent. I bought this Volvo because of its reputation for reliability, but I guess those days are over. I owned a Jeep for 22 years before I had to address a windshield leak. Your windshield should not leak at 5 years old. Some people are seeing leaks much earlier too! It's either the primer alone and/or the glue product. I'd been looking to upgrade my Volvo model... don't think I'll do that now. Weaver Volvo and Volvo... so disappointed in you.
