Consumer Description

THE BEARING FOR THE COUNTER BALANCE SHAFT HAS FAILED ON MY VEHICLE, CAUSING OVER $3,000 IN REPAIRS NEEDED. VOLVO HAS ADMITTED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH OLDER 2005 XC90'S WITH THE V8, BUT ARE NOT WILLING TO COVER MY REPAIRS COSTS. I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. IF THIS BEARING FAILS WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE COULD SEIZE CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. *TR
