  STEERING

  AT TIME OF PURCHASE, A VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT OF VEHICLE OCCURS UPON TURNING, MANUFACTURER REPLACED ENTIRE STEERING ASSEMBLY AFTER 5K MILES. OTHER VOLVO XC90 OWNERS HAVE HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS AND REPAIRS OF STEERING ASSEMBLY AT THIS TIME I WOULD LIKE TO BRING THE ISSUE TO NSTB AS IT MAY REFLECT POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUES IF NOT REPAIRED.

  INTERIOR LIGHTING

  THE LIGHTING OF DASH INSTRUMENTS, I.E. RADIO AND HVAC CONTROLS IS TOO DIM TO READ DURING NORMAL SUNNY DAYLIGHT CONDITIONS. THIS CONDITION CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT THE DRIVER CANNOT SEE IMPORTANT INFORMATION.*JB

  WHEELS:LUGS/NUTS/BOLTS/STUDS, TIRES, EQUIPMENT

  ON FEBRUARY 16 OF THIS YEAR, I HIT SOME BLACK ICE THAT CAUSED ME TO HIT A CURB SIDEWAYS. THE IMPACT KNOCKED THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL OFF. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE KEN GARFF SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE SOUTHTOWNE LOCATION IN SANDY, UT WHERE IT WAS "REPAIRED". A FREE LOANER CAR WAS GIVEN TO ME, AND THE CHARGES WERE COVERED BY MY INSURANCE. AT THAT TIME THE CAR HAD APPROX 3700 MILES ON IT. SINCE THAT REPAIR I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR APPROX 5000 MILES. I HAD THE 7500 MILE SERVICE COMPLETED AT THE KEN GARFF DOWNTOWN SLC LOCATION AROUND JULY 15TH. AT THAT TIME, IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THEY CHECK THE CAR OVER FOR ANY AND ALL SAFETY ISSUES. ON AUGUST 15TH, I DROVE FROM ELKO, NV TO LAKEWOOD, CO, WITH MY 14 MONTH OLD BABY. THE 750 MILE DRIVE TOOK US VIA I-70 AND THE MOUNTAINS OF COLORADO. ON AUG 16TH, I DROVE 1 BLOCK FROM MY PARENT'S HOUSE TO A STORE, WHEN I WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING PLACE THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE. I GOT OUT TO SEE WHAT THE TROUBLE WAS AND THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL WAS LYING COMPLETELY SIDEWAYS. A BOLT HAD COME OUT OF THE A FRAME AND THEREFORE THE WHEEL FELL OFF. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO RICKENBAUGH VOLVO IN DOWNTOWN DENVER TO BE REPAIRED. *NM
