NHTSA Complaint #10523618 — 2006 VOLVO S60

ETM FAILS CAUSING ME TO LIMP HOME OR HAS ERRATIC THROTTLE BEHAVIOR, HAD REPAIRED BASICALLY THEY JUST STATED IT HAD TO BE CLEANED BUT THE INJECTORS WHERE FINE. AFTER SPENDING OVER $600.00 DOLLARS NOW THEY ARE STATING I NEED TO SPEND ANOTHER $600.00 ON THE PART TO REPLACE BECAUSE THE MOTOR IS CAUSING IT TO FAIL. I AM USUALLY DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THEN A MESSAGE WILL DISPLAY 'REDUCE ENGINE PERFORMANCE CAUSING ME TO GO FROM 65 DOWN TO 40 MILES PER HOUR AND I FEAR THAT ONE DAY IT IS GOING TO CAUSE AND ACCIDENT DUE TO A MECHANICAL FAILURE ON BEHALF OF VOLVO ETM FIASCO. VOLVO HAS KNOWN THIS IS A FAULTY DESIGN BECAUSE BACK IN 1999 TO 2002 THERE WAS A RECALL AND THEY WERE ISSUED A 10 YEAR WARRANTY OR 200,000 MILE WARRANTY AFTER REPEAT FAILURES. I AM FILING A COMPLAINT BASED ON SAFETY CONCERNS AND DEMAND A RECALL AND BASED ON THE SAME ISSUE 'FAULTY DESIGN' AND VOLVO HAS KNOWN THIS CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM. 2006 SEEM TO HAVE A VERY HIGH REPAIR AND THIS SO HAPPENS TO BE ONE OF THOSE CARS. THANKS! *TR
