| My entiire transmission failed and had to be replaced by the manufacturer. my turbo has now failed and warranty recently expired. the current quote is $1000.00 or more to repair this. the airbag did not deploy on 2 occasions when it should have. the dealership refused to check it because it was too expensive. when i bought the car at 7500 miles, the antenna motor was broken. my salesperson told me they would repair it on my next service appointment. this promise was not honored, they later claimed that was my fault and not covered under warranty. this seems like a lot of problems for a car of this caliber. i am extremely dissappointed with volvo service and quality. i had a honda for 7 years and never had problems like these. i will go back to honda now. | |||
