IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN AND HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER SAID THE MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE COST WAS $385.19.

POWER STEERING AND ALL. I'VE SPENT OVER $700 IN REPAIRS AND THE MECHANIC CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT. NOW I DARE NOT TAKE IT ON A HIGHWAY. THE RECENT REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO YEARS 1999 AND ON MUST BE AMENDED TO INCLUDE THE 1998. I BOUGHT THIS WAGON BECAUSE OF VOLVO'S LONGEVITY REPUTATION. NOW IT'S A POTENTIAL ROAD HAZARD. *NM https://plaincars.com/make/volvo-v70awd https://plaincars.com/make/volvo-v70awd#complaint-516158 Mon, 10 Jan 2005 00:00:00 GMT ANTI-LOCK BRAKING (ABS) CONTROLLER FAILURE LEADS TO LOSS OF ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL.
