Consumer Description

I BOUGHT A USED VOLVO XC90, 2.5T MODEL, MANUFACTURED IN 2005. AND YESTERDAY I DROVE IT FOR ABOUT 30 MILES. VOLVO IS FAMOUS FOR VARIOUS SAFETY FEATURES. HOWEVER, I FOUND THAT FOR MANY TIMES THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER DID NOT WORK WELL, WHICH REALLY SCARED ME AND ALMOST CAUSED CRASHES ON HIGHWAY 610 OF HOUSTON. THE SYMPTOM OF MALFUNCTION IS THAT SOMETIMES WHEN I MOVE THE TURN SIGNAL LEVER, IT EITHER DID NOT RESPOND OR SHOWED A "LAG". AND SOMETIMES THE SIGNAL KEPT FLASHING LEFT, EVEN I GAVE LEFT TURN TO THE RIGHT. I REPORTED THIS POTENTIAL MALFUNCTION TO YOU BECAUSE I JUST READ THE NEWS ON HTTP://WOT.MOTORTREND.COM/6669043/RECALLS/NHTSA-INVESTIGATES-2004-2005-VOLVO-XC90-FOR-FAULTY-LIGHTS-SIGNALS/INDEX.HTML, WHICH MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT IT IS NOT ONLY AN INDIVIDUAL CASE. HOPE YOU CAN HAVE A THOROUGH INVESTIGATION, FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL. THANK YOU. *TR
