Consumer Description

2000 VOLVO S80--THE AUTOMATICE STABILIZING SYSTEM AND ABS BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE LIGHTS COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. OUR MECHANIC (VOLVO EXPERT, BUT NOT EMPLOYED BY A DEALERSHIP) SAYS THIS IS A COMMON FAULT IN THE S-80S WHEN THEY REACH 50,000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING IT IS A $1000 REPAIR--BECAUSE THE CAR HAS 60,000 MILES AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS APPEARS TO BE A SUBSTANTIAL SOFTWARE CONTROL DESIGN PROBLEM THAT SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING AND IS QUITE DANGEROUS UNLESS IT IS REPAIRED PROPERLY.*AK
