Consumer Description

REPLACE MAIN COMPUTER AFTER COMPUTER REGISTERED "URGENT, BRAKE FAILURE" CODE AND VOLVO DETERMINED IT WAS A FAULTY CODE. THREE MONTHS LATER, I HAD TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE WHILE UP SHIFTING...GETTING EXTREMELY BAD. HAD TRANSMISSION REBUILT AT A REPUTABLE TRANSMISSION SHOP AND HE TOLD ME THE TRANSMISSION (AT 80,000M) FAILED BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER SERVICED PROPERLY. I HAVE ALL SERVICE RECEIPTS...ALL DONE AT VOLVO DEALERSHIPS THROUGH 50K WARRANTY. TRANSMISSION SHOP SAID, MY GM TRANSMISSION, UNLIKE EARLIER VOLVO TRANSMISSION NEEDS MORE SERVICING THAN A VOLVO TRANSMISSION. TRANSMISSION SHOP SAID THAT MY "TRANSMISSION FILTER HAD NEVER BEEN CHANGED!!!!"*AK CONTACTED VOLVO CONSUMER AFFAIRS AND THEY BASICALLY LAUGHED AT ME. I AM THINKING ABOUT FILING A COMPLAINT IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT FOR 2K THE COST OF MY REBUILT TRANSMISSION. PRESIDENT OF CARS SUGGESTED THAT WAS A VIABLE OPTION. *TR
