Consumer Description

I OWN A 1999 VOLVO S70. ON TWO OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING, THE ENGINE, WITHOUT WARNING CUTS OUT. WITH THIS THE POWER STEERING GOES AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO STEER OUT OF TRAFFIC. BOTH THESE INCIDENTS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS AN INTERSECTION. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO INJURIES OR ACCIDENT. AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT, I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THAT IT WAS HARD TO DIAGNOSE AS IT JUST HAPPENED ONCE. WELL IT HAPPENED AGAIN! THE FIRST INCIDENT HAPPENED ON MAY 1, 2005 AND THE SECOND ON JULY 30, 2005. *JB
