1998 VOLVO V70XC Traction Control System Problems

ON A LARGE NUMBER OF VOLVOS THE ABS COMPUTER FAILS RESULTING IN LOSS OF PROPER BRAKING. NORMAL USE CAUSES THIS, IN THIS ALL TO COMMON FAILURE, AND VOLVO IS AWARE OF THEIR SHORT COMINGS IN THIS PROBLEM, THUS FAR REFUSING TO CORRECT A HIGHLY DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT MAY HAVE ALREADY RESULTED IN INJURY AND DEATH. THE REPLACEMENT COMPUTERS FROM VOLVO ARE OF THE SAME LACK OF RELIABILITY. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR YEARS AND CERTAINLY REPRESENTS A SERIOUS FAILURE IN A CRITICAL SYSTEM TO THE AUTOMOBILE. IN ADDITION TO BEING A SERIOUS FAILURE, VOLVO HAS MADE IT A VERY EXPENSIVE (HENCE PROFITABLE) REPAIR. ESTIMATES RANGING FROM $500.00 TO $850.00 FOR THE REPAIR ARE THE NORM. THE PART ITSELF IS AROUND $500.00, SO VOLVO MAKES A NICE PROFIT FROM EACH ONE REPLACED AND IS GUARANTEED ANOTHER REPLACEMENT FURTHER DOWN THE ROAD SINCE THEY HAVE NOT EVEN ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM...
