What owners report
Please be advised I purchased a very unsafe vehicle. It collapsed while I was driving it. I am unable to find a lawyer that will represent me. I spent all the money I have. Approximately five thousand dollars. My car insurance was increased and I haven't been able to find a loaner vehicle. I have lost two jobs or more counting before a car accident last year. Why can't I find a lawyer to represent me? [XXX] [XXX] telephone email [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The sunroof seal isn't working. It lifts when going through a car wash, and water is getting in.
All of a sudden , the right rear door will not open either from outside or inside. Similar problem was a recall on S60 Volvos.
Top windshield seal leaks, causing water running down windshield, and excess condensation creating visibility issues. Known problem by Volvo USA and dealers.
Windshield seal failure. Water/rain/carwash now leaks into the cabin of the car down the inside of the windshield directly in front of the driver's field of vision, obscuring visibility while driving. This is a clear safety hazard that is well chronicled on Volvo owner-sites. Volvo needs to issue a recall, as this affects the entire P3 platform (S60/V70/XC70)
