2007 VOLVO C70 Structurebody Problems

THE TRUNK WILL NO LONGER OPEN ALTHOUGH WHEN I USE THE REMOTE KEY TO UNLOCK IT I DO HEAR IT CLICK. I HAVE READ THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR OTHER DRIVERS, WHICH IS WHY I'M REPORTING IT HERE.

WITHOUT NOTICE, THE DRIVER'S DOOR COMES UNLOCKS ITSELF AND UNLATCHED WHICH RESULTS IN THE DOOR OPENING WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND IT APPEARS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM. HTTPS://VOLVOFORUMS.COM/FORUM/VOLVO-C70-14/C70-DOOR-UNLOCKS-OPENS-ITSELF-WHILE-DRIVING-83545/

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, PASSENGER DOOR SUDDENLY COMES UNLATCHED. DOORS ARE AUTOMATICALLY LOCKED WHEN DRIVING. THE INFORMATION SYSTEM REPORTS A DOOR OPEN, THE INTERIOR LIGHTS FLICKER ON AND OFF WITH THE DOOR VIBRATING BY THE WIND AT 70 MPH. ALSO, THE WINDOW STARTS GOING UP AND DOWN ABOUT A HALF INCH LIKE IT WOULD NORMALLY FUNCTION WHEN THE DOOR IS OPENED FOR CLEARANCE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON A ROAD TRIP, AND WAS IN A PLACE WHERE IT WAS DIFFICULT TO FIND A SAFE PLACE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY, THE DOOR, AFTER CLOSING, APPEARS TO SHUT PROPERLY, AND THE LOCK SEEMS TO FUNCTION. THEN, WHEN THERE IS A BUMP OR DIP IN THE ROAD, THE DOOR BECOMES UNLATCHED AGAIN. THIS IS VERY SCARY TO HAVE THE DOOR COME UNLATCHED FOR NO REASON AT ALL. THERE WAS NOT A PASSENGER ON THIS TRIP, SO IT WAS NOT ACCIDENTALLY OPENED. THERE WAS...

WHILE DRIVING EITHER THE PASSENGER DOOR OR THE DRIVER DOOR SUDDENLY BECOMES UNLATCHED EVEN WHEN LOCKED AND THE INFORMATION MESSAGE SYSTEM COMES ON SAYING PASSENGER (OR DRIVER) DOOR IS OPEN AND CABIN LIGHTS COME ON. I AM REQUIRED TO PULL OVER AND RESECURE DOORS. THIS ISSUE HAS ESCALATED TO A NEARLY DAILY OCCURRENCE. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE FIXED BY A RECALL AS DOORS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO AUTOMATICALLY COME OPEN ON A 7 YEAR OLD CAR THAT HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE MADE AN APPT WITH THE HERB GORDON VOLVO DEALER IN SILVER SPRING MD FOR AN ASSESSMENT. *TR

THE DOORS OPEN WHILE DRIVING. EVEN IF THEY ARE LOCKED. THE INFORMATION SYSTEM GIVES A MESSAGE DRIVERS DOOR OPEN OR PASSENGER DOOR OPEN AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENED TO ME RECENTLY 4 TIMES WHILE DRIVING FROM KENT, OHIO TO NAPLES, FLORIDA. THE DOORS WERE FIRMLY CLOSED AND LOCKED AND HOURS LATER CAME OPEN BY THEM SELF. I WENT TO THE VOLVO DEALER IN BONITA SPRINGS AND SPOKE TO [XXX] THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER.HE TOLD ME THE PROBLEM WAS IN A DOOR ACTUATOR AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND HE CLAIMED THIS IS A WEAR AND TEAR ITEM COSTING AROUND A $1000 TO REPAIR. I ASKED WHAT WEAR AND TEAR COULD CAUSE THE DOORS TO ELECTRONICALLY OPEN WHILE DRIVING. HE HAD NO REPLY. I ALSO EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION AND IF THERE ISN'T A RECALL, THERE SHOULD BE. I CALLED...

WATER LEAKS THROUGH THE REAR LEFT AND RIGHT WINDOWS. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN THREE TIMES SINCE FEB 8, 2008 TO GET THIS REPAIRED. THE SOLUTIONS HAVE RANGED FROM INJECTING SEALANT TO REPLACING THE SEALS. HOWEVER, THE LEAK PERSISTS. FOLLOWING THE MOST RECENT REPAIR (REPLACING THE SEALS ON JULY 8), THE RIGHT REAR SIDE WINDOW RATTLES AND THE LEAK IS WORST THAN EVER. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY FRUSTRATING AND TIME-CONSUMING ENDEAVOR. *TR
