Consumer Description

COOLING FAN FAILED WHILE DRIVING ON A VERY BUSY FREEWAY. THE CAR OVERHEATED SUDDENLY, STOPPED RUNNING AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER. THE COOLING FAN WAS REPLACED BY A VOLVO DEALERSHIP. ON A PREVIOUS OCCASION IN NOVEMBER 2001 WHILE DRIVING ON A DESOLATE MOUNTAIN ROAD AT NIGHT THE CAR STOPPED AS THOUGH IT WAS OUT OF FUEL. THERE WAS AT LEAST AN 1/8 OF A TANK OF FUEL. THERE WAS A FUEL LINE DEFECT. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO A DEALER TWO HOURS AWAY AND THE DEFECT WAS REPAIRED. BOTH INCIDENTS CREATED A LOT OF INCONVENIENCE AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *JB
