Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX 40 MPH, I HEARD A POPPING NOISE AND A MESSAGE CAME ON IN THE DASH STATING "REDUCED EMISSION SERVICE". I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AT A MAXIMUM OF 10 MPH FOR 5 MILES TO MY NEAREST VOLVO DEALERSHIP. MY MILEAGE WAS JUST ABOUT 69,000 MILES. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED IT AS AN ELECTRONIC THROTTLE MODULE FAILURE AND REPLACED THE ETM. THE CAR HANDLED PROPERLY AFTER THE REPAIR, WHICH WAS COVERED UNDER THE 7 YEAR/70,000 MILE EXTENDED EMISSIONS WARRANTY. THE OLD PART WAS RETURNED TO VOLVO CARS NORTH AMERICA. *JB
