Volvo XC90 service and repairs

Volvo Cars is a Swedish multinational manufacturer of luxury vehicles headquartered in Torslanda, Gothenburg. The company manufactures SUVs, station wagons, and sedans. The company's main marketing arguments are safety and its Swedish heritage and design.

If driving verve isn't a top priority when shopping for a mid-size luxury SUV, the 2022 Volvo XC90, which serves up a whole lot of style and safety tech, is a solid choice. As the only three-row in Volvo's portfolio, it's best suited for shuttling families, even if its far-back seats aren't the most spacious. Still, it has one of the prettiest interiors in the class, which includes the BMW X5 and Porsche Cayenne. Both alternatives are better to drive, but they're considerably more expensive, too. Along with two four-cylinder options, the XC90 is also offered with a plug-in hybrid powertrain which has 400 horsepower and perkier acceleration, but its pure-electric range and fuel efficiency are unremarkable. Regardless, the 2022 XC90 is one of the most satisfying upper-class, three-row utes so we put it on our Editors' Choice list.

Product Reviews:


Volvo is a great vehicle. Love driving it. Over 180,000 miles now and hope to have more years. Also hope to have it last so my child can drive it in two years. It has a good quality, comfortable, heated seats, safety, long lasting, reliable and good looking. It's a reputable company as well. I am happy with everything about the vehicle and would purchase again. Would tell my family and friends to buy it.

The 2002 Volvo S60 AWD is just not very well designed or durable. I am the sole owner and purchased it new in 2002. It has about 78,000 miles and I maintain it religiously in accordance with the owner's manual. After I get the next expensive problem fixed, I'm trading it in for an American or Japanese model. I would avoid pricey European cars like the plague - nice to look at, but pure money pits. I could fill two pages here with all the oddball things that have gone wrong with this car. The dealer network is very spotty and the quality of their mechanics is even spottier. There are a few good ones, but more mediocre to bad ones. Their consumer complaint office has one objective - make you go away as there are so many calls they would go out of business handling your problem in a fair manner. Your only recourse is to never buy another Volvo.After spending $3,000 at a dealership to replace everything from the fuel pump to the timing belt, I was told that the occasional binding being experienced in my rear wheels was due to my entire AWD system being defective and needing a $5,000 replacement (for a car only worth about $7000!). I have taken it to a local mechanic who replaced the rear differential fluid and who now thinks the problem is with the left axle bearing not getting enough grease. He thinks the AWD system is fine, so I may get away with just a $1000 repair. I was hoping to get at least 100,000 miles out of the car, but I now believe it will require more huge maintenance expenditures - time to trade it in and cut my losses. The only way to fight back is to (1) fill out consumer reports info sheets on the car and tell the truth and (2) never buy another Volvo and tell everyone you know to never buy another Volvo.

Don't buy a new Volvo SUV. There are so many electronics issues, and the dealership has an excuse for all of them. The phone disconnects from the system after a couple of hours. VOLVO blames this on Apple CarPlay and says they can do nothing about it. On-line, VOLVO brags about having added Apple CarPlay to its 2019 SUVs. Don’t brag about it if you haven’t figured out how to get it to work with the VOLVO computer system. The radio turns on in the car when the keys are in the house, the car is in the locked garage and has been turned off. VOLVO says that the car must be locked -- in order for the car to be powered down.The radio doesn't consistently turn down when replying to a text. You never know when it's going to work or not work. With nothing on the passenger car seat, the red light in the instrument panel flashes on and off, indicating that the seatbelt should be turned on. So disappointed that I bought this brand new car and have absolutely no recourse.

We decided to give Volvo a shot in addition to the Porsche and Mercedes SUVs we were considering. The sales team was so horrible and disorganized that we're not even considering Volvo at all anymore. Typical used car lot type of dealership; if you're looking for a luxury experience, stick to the other brands.

This is the second XC 70 I bought new. Both cars required some costly repairs at about 100,000 km. On my current 2008 XC 70, the fuel door locking mechanism failed in spring 2012 at 95,000 km. The failure caused the fuel door to stick visibly open. The part that broke looked like a $3 plastic part. However, the repair including labor came to over 300 dollars Canadian. I am angry about it because in order to save a few pennies on the locking mechanism, Volvo put an obviously cheap part in, which failed prematurely and necessitated an expensive repair.In Jan. 2013, at 108,000 km, the valve that regulates the pressure in the tank and recirculates fuel vapors into the engine failed. This was indicated by the "Check Engine" light coming on. The replacement of the valve, including labor, is over 500 dollars Canadian. According to the service technician, it is quite common to see this part fail between 100,000 and 150,000 km. These types of failures don't fit with the image that Volvo is promoting that Volvo makes solid cars that are designed to last. At this point, I'm not sure if I will buy a third Volvo. Perhaps Nissan, Toyota, Audi or BMW stand up better.

Volvo financing refused to correct a charge off that was not paid on an earlier Volvo lease even though we demonstrated that they contacted me at the wrong telephone number about the debt. Volvo tanked my credit score and refuses to make it right. Needless to say I will never purchase/lease a Volvo ever again.

I had considered trading my Volvo which is made in Sweden, however now the brand has gone in to Chinese which happened two years ago. I will not buy another Volvo. For one thing they are to prone to breakdown. I probably will buy a Korean made vehicle.

I have had my Volvo XC60 for one year now and have driven it 20,000 miles. It handles very well on dry roads, the T5 engine has plenty of power and the transmission is extremely smooth. It gets about 27 mpg combined city/highway but requires 91 grade. It is roomy and very comfortable to drive and has some great technological options. But there is much more road noise than many lower priced vehicles - I would have expected much quieter at this price point. The voice commands are useless; I have had voice commands in Ford and GMC vehicles for the last 10 years and got used to how well they worked but the Volvo is not even close - it is very annoying to try using it. The foot activated tailgate only works occasionally, usually when you do not intend to use it. The XC60 is good to drive on dry roads but is very scary to drive on snow covered roads; again, Ford Escape and GMC Terrain are much more sure-footed in snow. After owning this XC60, I would not purchase another Volvo.

I have a 2015 Platinum XC60 for which I paid a lot extra. It has the leather interior which I thought until just recently was awesome. Has anyone who has a similar car experienced that the leather fabric on the dashboard area below the front window is totally peeling up? I keep my car garaged 99% of the time when it is not being driven and for unknown reasons, the panel below the window is coming apart. The dealer has turned the matter over to Volvo and I am waiting to hear what they will do about it. The dealer said they have never seen this before. The car only has 12,000 miles on it and the upholstery is now shot? I don't get it.

I took my car to the Volvo service department on January 2, 2012 because the "Transmission Service Urgent" message just came on. I have a 2003 Volvo S80 T6. The service department told me there are "internal fault errors in the transmission and I have three options. I could either buy a new one for $5,000, buy a used one for $3,000 - $4,000 or get it overhauled for approximately $3,000." I was really upset to hear this news. I told them, "There is absolutely no reason why I should need a new transmission with 139,000 miles on my car," (the car actually was close to having 140,000 miles) but it still should not need this type of repair, in my opinion. I filed a complaint with Volvo Customer Relations department at headquarters. This is what my complaint said to Volvo Customer Relations: "I have a complaint about the transmission in my car. The "Transmission Service Urgent" message just came on. The service department told me there are "internal fault errors in the transmission" and I could either buy a new one, buy a used oneor get it overhauled." The repair cost will be $3,000. This is ridiculous. There is absolute no way I should need a transmission at 139,000. This is one of many repairs I have had. The other crazy repair was the dashboard electrical system went completely out. I could not tell how fast I was driving, etc. That repair cost was $1,700. The transmission problem was the last straw. I want something done by Volvo. I am really an unhappy customer. This was my first Volvo and my last Volvo.These are the responses I received from Volvo Customer Relation at the corporate office:Response #1 from Volvo: "Thank you for contacting Volvo Cars of North America. When you contacted our offices, a file was opened for review on your behalf to seek financial assistance for transmission repairs. Your request has been reviewed by a Volvo Regional Manager and we regret that we are not in a position to honor your request due to the vehicle being outside of the terms of your warranty. Thank you for the opportunity to respond."Response #2 from Volvo: "We have taken your concerns seriously and have had it reviewed by our Volvo Regional Representative. He has made the determination that this is not a warranty issue. While we regret that you may disagree with our decision; we respect your choice to pursue this matter as you see fit. Volvo Cars of North America appreciates the opportunity to respond to your concerns but is unable to review this matter any further."My final thoughts--I will never buy another Volvo car.
