Consumer Description

MY 1999 S70 WITH APPROXIMATELY 92,000 HAS THE FOLLOWING ISSUES: - SOMETIMES THE ENGINES START SHAKING? - HARD TO BRAKE - NO POWER EVEN IF YOU PEDAL IS AT THE MAX - CRUISE CONTROL STOP WORKING MY CAR HAS A MALFUNCTION WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE MODULE AND I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEAL TO GET THE SOFTWARE UPGRADE. SINCE THE UPGRADE MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY FRONT 02 SENSOR. NOW THE CAR IS UNDRIVEABLE BECAUSE IT WILL NOT GO MORE THAN 20MPH WITH THE GAS PEDAL FLOORED. VOLVO WILL NOT REPAIR THIS KNOW ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR IS 10 1/2 YEARS OLD. THEY STATE IF THE CAR WAS LESS THAN 10YEARS OLD OR UNDER 200K IN MILEAGE THEY WOULD REPAIR IT. THIS IS NOT FAIR. THEY COULD HAVE REPLACED THIS ETM WHEN I CAME FOR THE SOFTWARE UPGRADE BUT THEY DID NOT. *TR
