LLC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY . well, i've also joined the ets club at about 60,000 miles on my s70, 2000, to the tune of $860 bucks! it happened at the most inopportune time. while cruising south on i-95, june 6th, car started to run like it had water in the gas. after about an hour or so of that, the ets warning light comes on, so i check the owner's manual, and it says to turn off the car, and restart, and if the light comes back on, (you're in deep doo-doo) then head for a volvo dealer. well, it did come back on and about an hour later, the car goes into the "limp-home" mode of about 40 mph. fortunately we were able to "limp" into wilmington, nc, and luckily, parkway volvo was only about one-half mile from the comfort inn, where we crashed for the evening. parkway volvo was able to get to my car the very next day, replaced the ets module, and to date (23 jun 05) the car runs like new. the customer service and technical skill of the service manager (brent wells) are suberb!!! fortunatley, i asked for the old ets unit and have since learned that don wilson might to have it. i'm sending him an email (donwilson@comcast.net) to see if he still wants them for testing). i'm also filing a complaint and will support a "class action lawsuit" any way possible. it's unbelievable that volvo won't step up to the plate and take responsibility for this "defect"..... defective unit has these markings: marelli, 110541f2a, 00w080201; 9188793; 65cfm2; ah.0082030.k. note: the box that the new one came is is marked: volvo 8644347 "made in italy" .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 59987 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . here's what happened to us: we (my wife, three year old son and i) were driving our 2000 volvo s70 sedan down interstate 95 from washington dc to north carolina. in virginia, the electronic throttle system (ets) sensor came on. we stopped, like the manual suggested, restarted the car and the light went out. midway through virginia, the ets light and check engine light came on simultaneously. we stopped and again stopped the engine. upon restart, the ets light went off, but not the check engine light. this took place the whole trip down i-95. we made it home, but don't feel comfortable driving our three year old around. the vehicle started to lose speed when the sensor came on. we stopped almost immediately every time, which is no great thrill when you are driving on an interstate. when the cruise control was set, the light came on, kicked off the cruise control and began to shake and shimmer. we stopped about ten times during a 150 miles trip. *nm.Mileage was 55 miles.

LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . ever since purchasing our volvo, there has been power reduction and surges of which i've brought up to the dealership where purchased. my husband has asked what may cause this sort of thing because we didn't want it to be the transmission. we were told it was part of the way a volvo works. the incident that led to it having to be repaired was when we returned from an hour and half drive and pulled into a parking lot where the engine started revving continuously. a light came on the dash, esl. the only thing in the manual i could find was what the initials stood for-electronic throttle system. we were able to drive it home after short while because of a safety devise in the vehicle that allows this apparently. the next day my husband called our dealership who we bought it from and was told we had to take it to a garage 50 miles away because they're the only ones with the equipment to diagnose and repair the problem. we continued our questioning of the situation and 3 mechanics in 3 different garages told us they were aware of the problem but there was no recall (yet). however, i understand from an acquaintance now that the repair is only a band aid and the problem will return because a component needs to be replaced. the cost for this repair which is ultimately a computer chip replacement and download is approximately $1100. the garage performing the repair has also alerted us of a head light defect that cost $55 to repair and suggested we take care of it because the headlights might just stop working at any given time. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 94000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i just read on your website an action summary regarding "failure of the electronic throttle control module (etm)". i did experienced the same problem in sept. 2003 on my 2000 s70glt. the car suddenly lost power on the highway and slow down. i got honked by so many other drivers when i was trying to pull over to the road side. luckily i did not get hit by any other car. the symptom disappeared after i shut and restarted the engine. when it happened for the second time later during the same week, i decided to drive to the dealer's shop for an emergency checkout. i shut and restarted the engine but still the car is shaking and could not accelerate to normal speed. so, i had to turn on emergency lights and drove very slowly to the dealer's shop. that day i spent $1,111 for them to replace the motor throttle module and it is not covered with manufacturer warranty since the car already has 78k miles on the meter. the problem goes away after the repair. however, since that time it has starting problem from time to time. it always start okay but sometimes the engine speed drop and stop after a few seconds of running. they could not find out what is wrong in the car and it is hard to reproduce the problem when i brought the car to them. the funny thing is that i just had a 105k miles maintenance fully tuned at the dealer's shop two weeks ago and they said the checking and maintenance went well and the car runs nicely. in this morning it happened again when i was rushed to work. i got stuck at my garage for 15 minutes before i finally started the engine. i suspect these symptoms are still related to this etm defect. *nm.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 78000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . while driving my volvo s70 2000 westbound on i-90 just past the gary , in exit 10, during the morning rush hour, the car lost power and would not accelerate faster than 30 mph. between exit 10 and the next exit 5 the road is elevated there is no usable shoulder. as a result for 5 miles i drove at 30 mph while cars and trucks approached me from behind at 55-75 mph. numerous cars and trucks had to slam on their brakes to avoid rear ending me and one truck started to jackknife. i finally made it to the exit 5 and called for a tow truck. the dealer replaced the electronic throttle module at the cost of over $1,000.00. i was incredibly fortunate that i was not injured or killed and that i did not cause an accident. i happened to be driving the car to the dealer to a service appointment that morning because the ets dashboard warning light had lit up. when i described the problem to the dealer the week before i was not informed that i could lose power like that . indeed when arrived by tow truck at the dealer the service person told me that the etm problem did not make the car unsafe to drive but that "you just have to know how to drive it that way." . the dealer is about 60 miles from my home. all the volvo safety features wouldn't have done me a lick of good if a semi had plowed into me at 55 mph or more. this sudden loss of power problem utterly compromises the volvo safety features. so instead of taking the volvo on a cross-country trip this summer we rented a van. i urge that this part be recall and more importantly in the meantime, make volvo contact car owners and tell them that if the ets light comes on the car is unsafe to drive at highway speeds. *nm.Mileage was 68000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . while teaching my son to drive our 2000 volvo s70, our car started jerking as he was coming to a stop. at the stop light,the car continued to have a jerking motion. the ets light came on so i looked this problem up in our manual. it says, 'if the light remains on, the system should be inspected by an authorized volvo retailer'. the light went out so we didn't think that this was going to be an ongoing problem. we continued to drive the car and it worked fine. on some occasions the light would come on and we would simply bring the car to a stop and turn the car off. the light would go off. i became concerned about this only after the light came on and i couldn't bring the car to an immediate stop. i was gearingup to a merge where cars are weaving and out of each other at rush hour to position themselves to get onto or off the highway,respectively. the light came on and i couldn't stop. the car's accelerator began to behave erratically like it was losing pressure but i wasn't in a location where i could stop;i barely avoided a major accident. when i brought the car to a stop and turned the engine off the light went off again as if nothing was wrong. i came straight home and got online to get insight. i read that volvo owners in cal had brought a class action lawsuit over this safety issue. ironically, we had just had our 90k service performed 3 mos before this problem occurred. we thought that we were maintaining our vehicle to its highest safety standards. now we have to bring the car back in for a $1k fix. i am adding my voice to other volvo owners who've had this problem and believe that it's volvos duty to correct it before there are significant deaths attributed to it. if nothing else, the manual should say, 'bring your car in immediately to be fixed because the problem will worsen and eventually lead to complete engine failure and potentially your death and the death of innocent people in the cars around you who hit you unsuspecting because your car's engine fails'. *nm.Mileage was 91800 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . at approx. 80k miles, my 2000 volvo s70 computer system began returning a check engine light along with a ets light on several incidents. when those warning lights were on, the engine would not hold a steady curb idle. rpms wavered from 500 to 1500 and caused a dangerous surging at stop signs and stop lights. checking the owners manual on the ets light, it said to turn the engine off then back on, if the light went out-fine. if not, go to the dealer. the incidence this happening got more and more frequest until finally the ets light would not go out and the car could not be safely driven. researching on the internet, i found that it was a common problem with the etm or electronic throttle module, on this make and model year and that the only the dealer could replace it. so, i went to the dealer and had them replace the etm on aug 19, 2005 at the excessive cost of $917.91. (it was less expensive than an accident.) even though i have not experienced the problem since, i expect that the problem will reoccur some 50 to 80k miles in the future since the defective part was just replaced with a new part with the same flawed design. i feel that volvo should recall this part immediately and make reparations to those of us who have had to have it replaced. i feel that they knew that the part was flawed at the time of manufacture. why else would their owner's manual explain the ets error and the temporary fix like it does? the "turn the engine off" fix just postpones the repair until after the warranted mileage has past. *nm.Mileage was 80000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i own a 2000 volvo s70 and am was experiencing rpm surging. i took the car to an independent volvo repair specialist, southwest automotive, who identified the cause of the surging as an electronic throttle module problem, and that i should take the car to a volvo dealership. i took the car to a dealership,volvo of richardson, who informed me that the etm had been replaced under volvo?s warranty, and that the software had been upgraded. volvo of richardson recommended a replacement of the transmission. i do not believe that the power surging is caused by the transmission. i am of the belief that a software upgrade has lowered the trigger points that are supposed to provide a diagnostic code that would indicate a malfunctioning electronic throttle module. in this case, the parameters have been reconfigured so low as to not present a code that would identify the problem is etm, even when surging is present to the extent of visually watching the tachometer move by 50 to 100 rpm's during steady to minor acceleration. since modifying the software parameters does not fix a power surge issue, then logic would indicate that the modification is an attempt to hide failures in a methodology that volvo is not being damned by the car?s own diagnostic system! in this case, volvo is denying the existence of an issue by the simple expedient of not reporting them. if factual, this action proves intentional fraud. the only result is a longer time to replacement at final etm failure. which i suspect volvo is hoping will be after the warranty extension, to volvo?s illicit benefit. i suspect that the result of this throttle surging behavior is (1) a safety issue, (2) causes premature wear and stress on the vehicle, (3) produces lower fuel mileage and the change in software has produced an unanticipated consequence of putting volvo dealers in a position of exploiting volvo owners into repair costs that are not necessary through simple misidentification or fraud.*ak.Mileage was 122000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . **approx. incident date is actually ongoing for past four years.*** i have a 2000 volvo s70 which i purchased new in may 2000 from volvo athens, ga. dealer. i currently have 190,000+ miles. over the past eight years i have owned the vehicle i have had consistent problems with the etm situation. at first, being new to volvo cars and repair situations, volvo denied the etm problem and stuck it on me to be repaired in nov. 2004. not until i described my issues with engine failure to an independent mechanic, was i warned about the ongoing problems in my model vehicle. since my initial repair i have encountered four other time periods when the same etm situation begins occurring, typically 20-30,000 mile intervals since the lasts service of the specific etm defect. now, i am on my fourth trip in four years to the local dealer to once again have the etm situation repaired. i am at 190,000 miles and according to the manufacturer "extended warranty" on this problem, my ability to have this ongoing safety issue fixed at manufacturer costs will cease in approximately 10,000 miles. clearly this safety defect has been an issue with my model car since its manufacture by volvo and to date no effective remedy has been found. i feel this issue is a major safety defect as my car will stall or hesitate then surge at any given moment thus causing a potential traffic accident involving not only myself, but my passengers, and potentially other drivers on the road. i am sick and tired of volvo not taking more responsibility for this issue and finding a solution to the problem, not just a stop gap measure to appease nhtsa. i have never been contacted by nhtsa regarding this issue despite my ongoing complaints to my local volvo dealer as well as the manufacturer service center. it appears from documentation on this website that nhtsa has gathered, or attempted to gather, complaints on volvo etm matter and i want to be included in such complaints. *tr.Mileage was 102838 miles.
