All Electrical Systemignitionmodule Complaints
HAD TAKEN MY S80 TO THE VOLVO DEALERSHIP A NUMBER OF TIMES COMPLAINING OF ENGINE HESITATION AND STALLING. VOLVO"S DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER SYSTEM "VADIS" OUTPUT CODES CLEARLY SHOWED DEFAULT CODES INDICATING A FAULTY MODULE. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THIS STEADFASTLY REFUSED TO REPLACE THE MODULE "DUE TO COST". I WARNED HIM OF THE POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCES OF TRYING TO OPERATE THIS VEHICLE WITH UNRELIABLE ENGINE FIRING AND THE ASSOCIATED "STALLING" THAT OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. I EXPRESSED MY CONCERNS TO HIM ABOUT THE DANGER THAT THIS PROBLEM PRESENTED FOR ME AND OTHER VEHICLES WHICH I HAD EXPERIENCED DURING PREVIOUS "STALLINGS". UNFORTUNATELY, AFTER TREMENDOUS RESEARCH AND A NUMBER OF PHONE CALLS BEFORE I COULD BRING THIS INFO TO BEAR TO FORCE THE DEALERSHIP TO HONOR THEIR WARRANTY I EXPERIENCED A "STALLING" EVENT WHILE DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHICH LEAD TO A SINGLE CAR ACCIDENT,RESULTING IN A TOTAL LOSS OF MY CAR. *NM
VEHICLE SURGES IN RPM WHILE DRIVING,VEHICLE STARTED BY NO ACCELERATION WARNING LIGHT ON ENGINE MALFUNCTION. SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. *NM
RE:1999, S-80,T-6 VOLVO. SAW AN AP ARTICLE IN MY LOCAL PAPER TODAY RE COMPLAINT INVESTIGATION. I EXPERIENCED VIRTUALLY ALL OF THE SAME PROBLEMS CITED IN THE ARTICLE. NAMELY STALL W/O WARNING, FROM A STOP,STEP ON GAS AND BARELY WOULD MOVE(LIKE SLIPPING CLUTCH ON A MANUAL TRANSMISSION) , HAD NUMEROUS INCIDENTS WHERE I FELT VULNERABLE AND UNSAFE IN TRAFFIC, LOSS OF POWER STEERING ETC. SOUNDS VERY MUCH LIKE THESE OTHER COMPLAINTS. AT SAME TIME I HAD LOTS OF INCORRECT "READOUTS" ON DASH PANEL. I COMPLAINED TO DEALER WHO SAID THIS ALL COULD BE RELATED TO THE ABS CONTROL MODULE WHICH WAS REPLACED AT COST OF $825.00. OLD PART WAS NOT GIVEN BACK TO ME. OF NOTE IS THAT DURING THE SAME REPAIR A BELT WAS REPLACED WHICH THEY DID GIVE BACK TO ME, BUT NOT THE MODULE. MILEAGE WAS ONLY 61,376. THIS MODULE DID SOLVE THE PROBLEM HOWEVER I AM NOW...
