ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC IN ECO DRIVE MODE WITH THE AUTO START/STOP FUNCTION ENABLED. THE AUTO STOP KICKED IN AND STOPPED MY ENGINE, BUT WHEN I WENT TO PRESS ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE AUTO START DID NOT RESTART MY ENGINE AND THE GAS PEDAL WAS UNRESPONSIVE. NO ALERTS OR WARNINGS POPPED UP - EVERYTHING REMAINED ON (HEADLIGHTS, RADIO, ETC), AND NOTHING APPEARED WRONG EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT THE CAR WOULDN'T MOVE/ACCELERATE. I WAS GOING AROUND 1MPH AT THIS POINT, AND PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER, PARKED, AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE MANUALLY. I THEN DROVE HOME WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT. I BROUGHT IN THE CAR TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. THE RESPONSE WAS THAT THERE WAS NOTHING TO FIX B/C NO CODES SHOWED UP DURING THE DIAGNOSTIC, AND THEY WEREN'T ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THEY DOWNLOADED "SOFTWARE 1 AND 2" AND SAID THAT MIGHT FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THEY DON'T KNOW. THEY SAID CORPORATE DOESN'T TELL THEM WHAT THE SOFTWARE UPDATES DO, BUT IT SEEMED LIKE THE UPDATE MAINLY PERTAINED TO THE RADIO WHICH CLEARLY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MY ISSUE. THEY TRIED TO RETURN THE VEHICLE TO ME A WEEK LATER (11/27) AND I REFUSED, AND ASKED THEM TO ESCALATE THE ISSUE B/C I DIDN'T FEEL THE CAR WAS SAFE AND THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION. THEY ASSURED ME THAT CORPORATE'S FIELD TECH SPECIALIST WAS CONSULTING WITH THEM ON THE PHONE AND AGREED THE CAR WAS FINE TO BE RETURNED TO ME B/C THERE WERE NO CODES AND THE ISSUE COULDN'T BE REPLICATED. I SPOKE TO CORPORATE (VOLVO NORTH AMERICA) AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD ESCALATE ON THEIR SIDE BUT HAD NO SPECIFIC DETAILS TO REASSURE ME THE PROBLEM WAS TAKEN CARE OF. I ASKED FOR A FLIGHT COMPUTER TO BE INSTALLED TO LOG THE CAR DATA IN CASE THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN, AND NO ANSWER ON THAT REQUEST SO FAR. I GOT THE CAR BACK TODAY (12/8) B/C THEY DON'T KNOW HOW/WHAT TO FIX. THE DEALER HAS MECHANICS AND NOT THE SOFTWARE ENGINEERS THAT NEED TO LOOK AT THE CAR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
CAR WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH SPEEDOMETER SCREEN AND CENTER CONSOLE SCREENS. SCREEN WOULD BLANK OUT WHEN NAVIGATION SYSTEM WAS IN USE AND VEHICLE WAS MOVING. THIS WOULD HAPPEN TWICE AND SYSTEM WOULD NORMALIZE. SEVERAL WEEKS AGO THIS HAPPENED AND MY HUSBAND AND I SMELLED A WEIRD ODOR AND THEN SMOKE BEGAN BELLOWING OUT CENTER CONSOLE. UNIT WAS TURNED OFF AND DEALER CONTACTED. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN BUT AFTER THREE WEEKS STILL HAS ISSUES. WENT TO PICK UP CAR ON 12/5 ONLY TO FIND VEHICLE WAS HAVING ISSUE WITH RETAINING A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY. WE WERE TOLD AL OF THESE ISSUES ARE DUE TO SOFTWARE UPDATES BUT TO HAVE SPEEDOMETER GO OUT WHILE IN USE AND TO SMOKE IS NOT SAFE

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THIS REPORT IS ABOUT A HAZARDOUS SITUATION WITH OUR 2004 XC90. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN WITHOUT WARNING ON THE I5 FREEWAY! THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND WE HAD TO COAST TO THE SIDE IN THE DARK. WE WERE LUCKY TO NOT GET HIT! THE DISPLAY SHOWED THE FOLLOWING ERROR CODE: ECM-981A. WE ARE AWARE OF THE FACT THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT NEW TO NHTSA AND THAT YOU HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL REPORTS ON IT ALREADY. IT APPEARS THAT THE PROBLEM HAS TO DO WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL, AND EVER SINCE THE INCIDENT WE HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR WITHOUT ENGAGING IT WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR IS 138,000 MILES. THE PROBLEM OCCURRED WHEN ENGAGING THE CRUISE CONTROL ON AN UPHILL SLOPE. WE SPECULATE THAT IT MIGHT BE CAUSED BY ENGAGING THE CRUISE CONTROL AT THE SAME INSTANT AS THE CAR SHIFTS DOWN AUTOMATICALLY. I TALKED TO A VOLVO SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO AID THAT HE HAD EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS OWN 2004 XC90 BUT HE WAS UNABLE TO FIND WHAT HAD CAUSED IT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY VOLVO XC90 ALSO HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH CEM PROBLEMS AFTER VARIOUS SYMPTOMS BEGAN TO ARISE. AFTER GOING THROUGH A CAR WASH, THE DISPLAY BEGAN SHOWING VARIOUS MESSAGES. THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS THE THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. I HAVE ORDERED A NEW CEM AND INTEND TO REPLACE IT . I AM AN ATTORNEY. IF THIS VEHICLE CONTINUES TO FAIL AFTER THE CEM IS REPLACED, I INTEND TO TAKE FURTHER LEGAL ACTION, ESPECIALLY IN LIGHT OF THE REPORTS AND COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ ON THIS WEBSITE. I INTEND TO CALL THE LOCAL DEALER TOMORROW TO PUT THEM ON NOTICE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE. I CANNOT BELIEVE A REPUTABLE COMPANY LIKE VOLVO DOES NOT TAKE CARE OF THE CUSTOMERS WHO HAVE PURCHASED THEIR VEHICLES. I AM FORMALLY REQUESTING THAT THE INVESTIGATION INTO THESE PROBLEMS BE REOPENED AS THE PROBLEMS CAUSED BY THE CEM DESIGN FLAWS CAUSE DANGEROUS PROBLEMS THAT CAN THREATEN THE SAFETY AND EVEN THE LIVES OF THOSE WHO DRIVE AND RIDE IN THE VOLVO XC90

IN A NUTSHELL: AT APPROXIMATELY 8:35 WEDNESDAY MORNING (OCTOBER 28TH), MY VOLVO XC90 SPONTANEOUSLY CAUGHT FIRE IN THE POURING RAIN. I WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME. THANKFULLY NOBODY WAS HURT. TORONTO FIRE SERVICES AND TORONTO POLICE SERVICES BOTH ATTENDED THE SCENE. THE MOST FRIGHTENING PART OF THIS INCIDENT IS THE FACT THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY SPONTANEOUS AND VERY CLOSE TO THE GAS TANK! OBVIOUSLY IT WAS THE RESULT OF AN ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. THANKFULLY ANOTHER DRIVER ALERTED ME TO THE FACT THAT MY CAR WAS ON FIRE - AS IT WAS NOT APPARENT TO ME - AND I WAS ABLE TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY. I SHUDDER TO THINK OF THE POTENTIALLY FATAL GAS EXPLOSION WHICH WOULD HAVE FOLLOWED, HAD WE NOT BEEN ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE AS QUICKLY AS WE DID.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
LOOKING FOR REPAIRS ON FUEL ISSUES,I READ IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. MY VOLVO HAD STARTED TO SMELL LIKE GAS, MORE IN THE REAR RIGHT SIDES OR BACK SIDE. I HAD READ THAT IT MAYBE OR IS A RECALL ISSUE . I BOUGHT MY VOLVO IN 4/28/15 BEING ONLY THE SECOND OWNER,I NOTICED THE SMELL CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR, THEY SUGGESTED A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK. CAME UP AS POSSIBLE VOLVO RECALL, SINCE A BOUGHT THE CAR AS IS THEY DIDN'T FIX IT, THEY DID SUGGEST ON CALLING VOLVO DIRECT FOR THIS ISSUE. I MADE A APPOINTMENT WITH AUTONATION VOLVO IN SAN JOSE CA ON 6/15/2015. WHEN SHOWING UP FOR SERVICE THEY DENIED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT A RECALL ON THAT PARTICULAR PROBLEM FUEL ISSUES, IT WAS A RECALL ON 157. I WAS SURPRISED BECAUSE I HAD GONE FOR A FUEL ISSUE NOT A SUSPENSION ISSUE. SO MY FUEL ISSUE IS STILL PRESENT. SO ALL I CAN SAY IS THAT MY ISSUE WITH MY VOLVO IS A RECALL WITCH VOLVO OF SAN JOSE CA DON'T WANT TO FIX BECAUSE ITS NOT IN THE YEAR, MODEL, MAKE. CLEARLY I HAVE THE MOBIL MAKE AND YEAR, 2004 XC90 VOLVO DO TO ALL THE INFORMATION FOUND. MYSELF AND MY HUSBAND DRIVE THIS CAR EVERY DAY PLUS MY 7 YR. OLD WITH MY NEWBORN PASSENGERS BEING A HAZARD TO MY FAMILY.WE TOOK IN THE VOLVO IN ON SATURDAY THE 10/17 OF 2015 BECAUSE THE SMELL IS REALLY BAD, WE NEED TO DRIVE WITH THE AC AT ALL TIMES BECAUSE THE SMELL OUTSIDE IS SO BAD. WE GOT REJECTED AGAIN, SAYING THE SAME MY CAR DOES NOT FALL IN THAT RECALL ALSO DO TO MY VIN NUMBER NOT MATCHING WHO KNOWS WHAT, I NEED THIS FIXED BAD. WE HAVE ALSO HAD PEOPLE TELL US ABOUT THE SMELL BEING STRONG. AS YOU CAN SEE ITS A SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY, AND AT THIS TIME FINANCIAL HARDSHIP IS IN ISSUE DO TO MATERNITY LEAVE TO BE PAYING SOMETHING THAT CLEARLY ITS A VOLVO ISSUE , I THINK VOLVO SHOULD TAKE THIS AS A BIG CONCERN. I DO HOPE THIS PROBLEM GETS RESOLVED AND DONE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND WORK. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
ASIDE FROM NORMAL CARE, I HAVE ONLY REPLACED MY TIRES AND A GAS CAP. I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE SOME WATER SEEPAGE ONTO THE DRIVER-SIDE. I COVERED THE VEHICLE WHEN IT RAINED AND FIGURED I WOULD HAVE A LOOK AT IT WHEN I HAD TIME. JULY 2015, I TOOK MY VOLVO TO SAVANNAH VOLVO, FIXED MY BREAKS ALONG WITH OTHER SAFETY FIXES, AFTER 14 HRS OF HAVING MY VEHICLE AND 2800 LATER, PETE STATED EVERYTHING WAS TAKEN CARE OF AND THE WATER SEEPAGE WAS DUE TO THE DRAINS BEING CLOGGED, BUT, THEY ARE ALL CLEAR NOW, WE DID A WATER TEST AND EVERYTHING IS OK. YOU WILL EXPERIENCE SOME MORE WATER SEEPAGE BUT IT SHOULD DRY UP IN A FEW DAYS. HE ALSO MENTIONED SOME OTHER WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE THOUGH NOT UNTIL NOVEMBER, DECEMBER. I SAID GREAT AND GOT ON MY WAY. THREE DAYS LATER IT DID RAIN, CONFIDENT I DID NOT NEED TO COVER MY VEHICLE AND WAS STILL EXPERIENCING WATER SEEPAGE FROM MY VISIT, I DID NOT THINK ANY THING OF IT. THE NEXT DAY, MY CONTROL PANEL STARTED TO LIGHT UP. I CALLED SAVANNAH, AND HE MENTIONED IT MUST JUST BE BECAUSE YOU PUT A FULL TANK OF GAS....WHAT??? OK. AS THE WEEK WENT ON THE CONTROL PANEL CONTINUED TO LIGHT UP ONE BY ONE. THE DAY BEFORE GOING BACK, MY DRIVER SIDE TURN SIGNAL WAS ON. HOPING I DID NOT HAVE A DEAD BATTERY THE NEXT DAY, I HEADED TO VOLVO. AFTER 4 HRS THEY TELL ME THE ROOF DRAINS WERE CLOGGD AND SEEPED ONTO THE CEM, AND IT IS DAMAGED. I SAID TO PETE, I THOUGHT THE DRAINS WERE CLEAR WHEN I LEFT A WEEK AGO??? YEAH, WELL, WE CAN'T CREATE A PROBLEM WITH YOUR DRAINS. THOUGH, AFTER 10 YRS I LEAVE THERE AND 3 DAYS LATER EXPERIENCE A PROBLEM, AFTER YOU TOLD ME MY DRAINS WERE ALL CLEARED? SEVERAL PHONE CALLS TO THE DEALERSHIP AND VOLVO HEADQUARTERS, NOT ONE PERSON IS TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS BAD DESIGN, WHICH COULD HAVE CAUSED MY TRANSMISSION TO LIMP AND A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT! IT NOW SITS IN MY DRIVEWAY, AFTER SPENDING 2800.00 I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER VOLVO!
