Consumer Description

THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT DEAD AND THE TURN SIGNALS WOULD NOT FUNCTION. ONLY THE HEADLIGHTS WERE WORKING. MESSAGES CAME UP SAYING THAT THERE WAS AN SRS AIRBAG ISSUE AND THAT THERE WAS A BRAKE FAILURE. ALL OF THE MESSAGES WERE FALSE AND THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WENT DEAD. THIS IS A CONCERN SINCE THE MESSAGES ARE INCORRECT ACCORDING TO WHAT THE DEALER TOLD ME AND HAVE SEEN SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I THINK THAT VOLVO SHOULD REPLACE ALL OF THE DIMS AND CEMS FOR EVERY CAR THAT EXHIBITS THIS PROBLEM THE FIRST TIME FOR VEHICLES UNDER 125,000 MILES. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AND IS A VERY BIG SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THAT THE CLUSTER HAS GONE DEAD. ALSO EACH TIME IT HAS BEEN RAINING AND THE DEALER HAS SAID THAT THERE ARE NO SHORTS IN THE SYSTEM. SOMETHING IS WRONG AND THEY ARE REPLACING EVERY PART WITHOUT FIXING THE ISSUE. *TR
