All Visibilitywiper Complaints
The car has a factory fault with the Windshield Wiper or Turn Signal contact switch, which is causing the inability to use the left/right signal and the wipers. The entire part is factory faulty, rendering the vehicle unable to operate safely. This affects visibility during wet conditions because the wipers cannot be activated due to the malfunctioning switch, which can lead to serious accidents. Additionally, malfunctioning left/right turning signals can also cause serious accidents, as it is a crucial function. Yes, the vehicle is available upon request. I contacted Volvo, but they declined to fix the issue. They have published a technical bulletin regarding the problem but are not recalling the vehicles. Many other Volvo models have the same factory defect, as can be found on the internet. The technical bulletin confirms their fault. I have attached the file. No, the vehicle has not been inspected.

WHEN DRIVING MY VOLVO AFTER IT HAS RAINED AND I BEGIN TO BREAK, WHILE ON A ROAD WITH A MINIMAL DECLINE, RAIN WATER POURS INTO THE CABIN. I WAS TOLD BY VOLVO SERVICE TECHNICIANS THE WATER IS NOT ABLE TO CHANNEL THROUGH THE SUNROOF CHANNELS CORRECTLY DUE TO CORROSION OR CLOGGING IN THE DRAINAGE TUBES/SUNROOF TRAY ASSEMBLY. THE WATER POURS INTO THE CABIN NEAR THE INTELLISAFE/REARVIEW MIRROR AREA. THIS EVENT CREATES A DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER ESPECIALLY IF BREAKING WHILE ON A RIGHT HAND CURVE AS THE WATER POURS OUT TOWARDS THE DRIVERS FIELD OF VISION. FOR FEAR OF WATER DAMAGING ANY ELECTRICAL SAFETY COMPONENTS, OR THE INTEGRITY OF THE INTERIOR MATERIALS I PULL OVER TO DRY THESE COMPONENTS. THIS EVENT OCCURS WHEN EVER IT RAINS.

I'M THE ONLY DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE DURING THIS PERIOD, AND I THINK I SHOULD KNOW IF A DEBRIS OR ROCK HIT MY CAR, CAUSING SUCH A MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE WINDSHIELD. I DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO LODGE A COMPLAINT, AND THEY RESPONDED BY SAYING THEY THINK IT MAY HAVE BEEN A DEBRIS OR ROCK. WELL, IF IT'S A ROCK OR DEBRIS, I'LL EXPECT THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF A CONSPICUOUS OR VERY GLARING POINT OF ORIGIN/IMPACT, CONSIDERING THIS IS 22 INCHES BY 8 INCHES CRACK ON A WINDSHIELD CLOSE THE BASE SEAL JOINT. I'LL ALSO EXPECT A POINT OF ORIGIN/IMPACT...
