Consumer Description

FAULTY DASH CLIPS THAT RETAIN THE DASHBOARD TO THE FIREWALL. I WAS TOLD BY THE LEAD TECHNICAN AT BOB PINKUS VOLVO IN COLORADO SPRINGS, CO THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN DEFECT. THE CLIPS BREAK LEADING TO A SQUEEKY DASH THAT VOLVO IS NOT WILLING TO ADDRESS OUT OF WARRANTY. I NOW HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN DIRVING THIS CAR AS I DO NOT KNOW WHEN THE DASH WILL SEPERATE, IF IN AN ACCIDENT, AND SEVERLY INJURE EITHER MYSELF OR A MEMBER OF MY FAMILY.
