2000 VOLVO V70 Power Train Problems

I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER BECAUSE IT WAS NOT PASSING SMOG AND HAD TROUBLE FOR SEVERAL YEARS. SO THE SMOG DEALER TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. I TOLD THE DEALER THAT I WAS TRYING TO PASS SMOG, BUT THE CAR HAD BEEN DRIVING VERY GOOD IN SPITE OF THE SMOG PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED EVERYTHING THAT YOU CAN IMAGINE AT A COST OF OVER 10,000 DOLLARS WHICH BOTH OF US SPENT IN A TWO MONTH PERIOD. BUT AFTER THEY GOT IT TO PASS SMOG I NOTICED ANOTHER MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM, IT WOULD STOP RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. I TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS NEW PROBLEM AND THEY REPLACED THE KEY AND IT STILL STOPPED ON ME 3 X ON THE FREEWAY AND STREETS. I RETURNED THE CAR GOING DOWN THE MAIN STREETS FOR 2 HOURS AND LIFT IT WITH THE COMPANY. MCKEVITT VOLVO IN SAN...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 VOLVO V70. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MOVE FORWARD AS THE RPMS INCREASED. THE CHECK ENGINE AND ETS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 146,000.

LOST POWER IN TRAFFIC, HAD TO DRIVE 10 MPH IN LIMP MODE IN HEAVY TRAFFIC

MY ENTIIRE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER. MY TURBO HAS NOW FAILED AND WARRANTY RECENTLY EXPIRED. THE CURRENT QUOTE IS $1000.00 OR MORE TO REPAIR THIS. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY ON 2 OCCASIONS WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE. THE DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO CHECK IT BECAUSE IT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE. WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR AT 7500 MILES, THE ANTENNA MOTOR WAS BROKEN. MY SALESPERSON TOLD ME THEY WOULD REPAIR IT ON MY NEXT SERVICE APPOINTMENT. THIS PROMISE WAS NOT HONORED, THEY LATER CLAIMED THAT WAS MY FAULT AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF PROBLEMS FOR A CAR OF THIS CALIBER. I AM EXTREMELY DISSAPPOINTED WITH VOLVO SERVICE AND QUALITY. I HAD A HONDA FOR 7 YEARS AND NEVER HAD PROBLEMS LIKE THESE. I WILL GO BACK TO HONDA NOW.
