Consumer Description

AIR PUMP WAS INITIALLY REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY ON 02/18/1999 (MILEAGE 47462) AND FAILED AGAIN 14 MOS. LATTER (THE CAR IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY). THE ESTIMATED COST TO REPAIR IS $400. THE ABS CONTROL MODULE WAS INITIALLY REPLACED 07/13/1998 (MILEAGE 33659) AND HAS FAILED JUST THIS WEEK (08/15). DON'T HAVE AN ESTIMATE OF THE REPAIR COST, BUT BELIEVE IT WILL BE $300-400. THESE 2 FAILURES DON'T SPEAK VERY WELL FOR THE QUALITY OF THE PARTS USED BY VOLVO.
