| Dt: 1999 volvo wagon vxc. sudden loss of power . the car did not stall except at a stop sign when giving it a lot of gas to get it going. this happened intermittently for two months. took vehicle to dealership, and they said it would cost $1753.00 to fix it. the car is out of warranty. they would put in a new steering rod/ front end alignment/ vehicle speed sensor/ throttle body assembly/ an automatic transmission, and drain and refill the coolant. *ak *jb | |||

| From february 2004 to april 2005, i have had various problems with my 1999 volvo xc70 and have little help from the volvo dealership in the matter. i twice had to call aaa because i stalled my car at school. originally, i thought it may be an ignition problem, but after two trips to jim culligan, it was determined to be a steering conmponent problem. furthermore, as the records at jim culligan will clearly document (and my own), i came back with this same problem and told them so, but they said my vehicle is no longer under warranty. all told, i probably spent close to $1500 on this problem by the manufacture. *nm | |||
