VEHICLE START THEN DIE OR JUST CRANK AND NO START. AT THE TIME PROBLEM THOUGHT TO BE FUEL PUMP RELAY. IMMOBILIZER WAS CHECKED BUT NOTHING DONE. IMMOBILIZER CONTINUED TO BE A PROBLEM (AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED); KEYS HAVE BEEN REPLACED/RECODED, IMMOBILIZER CONTROL MODULE FOUND FAULTY AND REPLACED, ANTENNA RING FOUND FAULTY AND REPLACED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THERE IS NO WARNING PRIOR TO THIS OCCURRING; IT JUST WILL NOT START WHEN THE KEY IS PUT INTO THE IGNITION (COULD BE DAY OR NIGHT - YOU ARE JUST STUCK!) RECENTLY, ON 7-16-2012 THE VEHICLE REPEATED THIS ACTION THREE (3) TIMES ON THE SAME DAY. IN THE LAST TWO (2) MONTHS I HAVE RECORDED NOT LESS THAN TEN (10) INCIDENTS. HAD I CALLED FOR A ROAD ASSIST EACH TIME I WOULD NOT HAVE ANY MORE AVAILABLE CALLS. FOR SOME REASON THE TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER (TRANSPONDER) ARE NOT IN SYNCH (ANTI-THEFT DEVICE IS OVERDOING ITS JOB). VOLVO.COM WAS CONTACTED BUT SO FAR HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THIS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY R

TRANSMISSION FAILURE WITH UNDER 90K MILES AND VEHICLE RECEIVING REGULAR SERVICE FROM VOLVO DEALERSHIPS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A FREQUENT OCCURRENCE AMONG C70 VOLVO OWNERS. *TT

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 VOLVO C70. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD ILLUMINATE ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL. AS HE DROVE, HE FELT A VIOLENT SHUTTER AND THE VEHICLE WOULD APPEAR AS IF IT WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE "ETM" OR ELECTRONIC THROTTLE MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 118,000.

INTERMITTEN PROBLEM WITH FUEL PUMP/FUEL PRESSURE. NO FUEL PRESSURE SOMETIMES DURING IDLE AND START UP. VERY SIMILAR TO THE PROBLEM THAT WE HAD WITH OUR 2003 VOLVO S80 WHICH IS NOW UNDER RECALL.

THE SUN VISORS IN MY CAR HAVE FAILED MULTIPLE TIMES, TYPICALLY THROUGH BREAKAGE OF THE PLASTIC PIVOT SHAFT. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE VISOR TO THE DOWN POSITION, AND CAN PREVENT THE DRIVER FROM REDUCING GLARE WHEN DRIVING INTO THE SUN. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD ISSUE. FURTHER, THE SHAFT BREAKAGE USUALLY CAUSES WIRING SHORTS THAT CAN DISCHARGE THE BATTERY, OR AT THE VERY LEAST RENDER THE MIRROR LIGHTS INOPERATIVE. I HAVE HAD REPAIRS MADE BY THE DEALER, BUT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS HAVE FAILED AS, OR EVEN MORE QUICKLY IN SOME CASES THAN THE ORIGINALS. *TR

MY WIFE AND I LEASED THIS CAR IN APRIL 2004 . SINCE THAT TIME WE HAVE HAD IT TO DEALER FOR SERVICE EIGHT TIMES FOR STARTING PROBLEMS. THE CAR CAN BE HOT OR COLD. IT WILL NOT STALL WHILE RUNNING THIS IS JUST WHEN YOU GO TO START IT. *AK SO FAR, THEY HAVE REPLACEED AN IMMOBILIZER TWO TIMES,AN ENGINE SPEED SENSOR THREE TIMES, REPLACED AN ENGINE IMMOBILZER ANTENNA RING TWO TIMES, A MAIN RELAY ONCE,TOTALLY RELOADED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM ONCE,AND REPLACED AN RPM SENSOR ONCE. THIS IS BY FAR THE WORSE CAR I'VE EVER HAD. I STILL HAVE ONE YEAR TO GO ON THE LEASE AND WE DON'T EVEN FEEL LIKE DRIVING IT. I DEFIANTLY WANT TO PURSUE THE FLORIDA LEMON LAW ON THIS CAR I WANT VOLVO TO TAKE THIS INFERIOR PRODUCT BACK NOW. MY WIFE IS A FORD RETIREE AND WE LEASED THIS CAR MAINLY BECAUSE FORD OWNS VOLVO. WHAT A MISTAKE.
