Volvo V70 2001 Unknown Or Other Review #731698

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2000.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . the reflection of the dashboard in sunlight on the windshield is virtually blinding. the color of the interior of our car is a cream beige with a matching dashboard. when driving into the sun, the reflection is so bad that 60% to 70% of your vision is impaired. we have had 3 near collisions since we have been unable to make out a light colored car entering an intersection. in filtered sun light, the reflection continues from a large radio speaker grill (the size of a dinner plate) and from the defroster grate that runs the full width of the dashboard. it looks like projection "tv" and is very distracting and tiring since it pops up and off when driving down tree lined streets or behind buildings or trucks. this causes heavy eye strain and makes it very dangerous on longer trips. volvo use to use a darker brown dashboard on this car which did not reflect the sunlight. my lincoln ls has the same color interior and it too has a darker brown dashboard to absorb light. the analogy i would use to replicate the problem is driving a car with a white sheet on the dashboard. volvo indicated no desire to investigate the concern and said it is my choice if i want to change the dashboard for about $1,000. they said they have had no other complaints. we purchased the first 2001 model sold in maine and the first with this color interior. from an asthetic standpoint, the dashboard is very attractive. from a safety issue, this is an accident waiting to happen due to severely impaired vision in sunny driving conditions. i have driven since 1966 and have had over 50 cars and have never had a vision problem like this..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):YV1SZ58D811.

Volvo V70 2001 Visibility Windshield Review #737025

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Sept 27, 2000.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC had a problem with VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD . i leased a 2001 volvo v70 wagon on 9/27/00. i immediately noticed that there was a severe amount of reflection from top of dashboard onto the inside of the windshield. reflection is positioned high up on the windshield in the area were the driver would normally look out of the car. when direct sunlight is on the dashboard top, the reflection in the windshield is so great that it makes it very difficult to see through the windshield. even in lower light situations (as with nighttime street lighting and overcast days), the reflection pops up and is distracting to the driver. it appears that the reflection is due to the rake of the windshield and the angle of the dashboard top. i brought this to the attention of the volvo dealer and they in turn notified the volvo representative. the response was "condition normal to all 01 models". i note that the dealer's service dept indicated that other owners had also complained of this problem. i am 53 and have driven and owned many cars, but have never experienced this type of safety impairment in any other car. to find out if i was alone in my perception, i posted a note on edmunds.com and within several hours i received the following response: "yep, i'm sure everyone has this problem." the amazing thing about this reflection is that it appears to exist in the full line of volvo's new models. my guess is that over time there will be numerous accidents related to the driver's inability to focus through the reflection or due to the distraction caused by it popping up in changing light situations such as transitions driving from shade to sunlight on a tree lined street. for my part, although it will be a significant financial loss, i am going to dispose of the car as soon as possible because i believe it is unsafe to drive. i know this sound almost impossible that a company such as volvo could produce a car with this defect, but sit in one when there is light shining on the dash top and you will understand..Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):YV1SW53D112.

Volvo V70 2001 Electrical System Ignition Review #740277

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Oct 29, 2000.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:IGNITION . 2 days after i picked up my us spec volvo; the engine stopped dead while travelling 70 mpg on a major european highway. volvo could not find the problem and sent me a letter indicating there was nothing wrong with my car. 2 days ago the engine stopped dead again while driving through a busy city intersection. either of these accidents could have easily been fatal as the car gave no warning before the engine stopped completely leaving me without power brakes or steering and stranded in traffic. the dealer now tells me that volvo has issued a technical bulletin stating that several new s80 and v70 models have a "weak" fuel pump which causes the engine to stop due to lack of gas although there is plenty of gas in the tank. despite the publication of this bulletin several weeks ago, neither volvo nor my dealer notified me that i needed a new pump (despite the previous breakdown), so i and my family were needlessly subjected to another harrowing vehicle failure. this defect is dangerous and volvo should be forced to correct it on all affected vehicles without waiting for them to have a second unexplained engine stoppage, as the bulletin apparently indicates, before replacing the pump. the dealer that services my car said that they have seen 4 new cars including mine with this problem in the last three months. if this is happening to my new us spec volvo xc, it must be happening to others as they are all produced in the same factory in sweden. please do something about this before one of these cars is involved in a serious accident that could have avoided had volvo been responsible in notifying customers of this potentially fatal defect. i am currently stationed with the us army in heidelberg, germany, and my phone number is +49 173 668 3872 if you need further information or my e-mail is harringtons@hq.hqusareur.army.mil. *ak.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):YV1SZ58D811.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Aug 01, 2005.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . 2001 volvo v70 2.4 t 1. power loss under normal operational conditions. several trips to dealership. service light coming on and off. 2. died in traffic with my wife and or she and our children in the car on several occasions. would sit, then be fine again. i thought bad gas or something. researched symptoms/conditions on the web and found that what we were experiencing sounded like prelude to catastrophic failure of etm. we took it to an independent mechanic instead of the dealerships which found nothing wrong and asked them to check the etm. couldn't get codes of about it because it resets itself even after codes come on and clears the codes. finally got right in when it happened and sure enough, etm was failing 3. we had to replace it out of our own pocket for $800 to $900. we were told by the mechanics that it wasn't fixed forever, that it would likely start to fail again at some point because it's a design flaw. the incident date is not correct...it was several months ago when we got it fixed but i can't find the repair slip atm for exact date. *jb.Volvo V70 2001 problem was reported in RICHMOND, VA.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on July 24, 2005.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . on wednesday august 24,2005 i was driving on the indiana toll road toward chicago when my 2001 volvo v70 which has less than 40,000 miles on it, stopped responding to my foot on the gas pedal. a message light that said "performance reduced" came on and i coasted without any control over the speed or power of the car. i was fortunate to be close to a toll booth and was able to pull over to the safety lane past the booth. i was fortunate to be in a safe place especially as i had my 7 year old son and dog in the back of the car. i turned off the car and sat for about 10 minutes trying to figure out what to do (even though the car has only 39500 miles on it, which is no longer under warranty). i started the car 10 minutes after this event, it started up fine, and there were no warning lights or messages. i decided we would be safer getting off the toll road even though i was taking a risk that this could happen again. i drove the remaining 15 miles home without a problem (no messages or warnings). i was able to bring the car to a mechanic who is an authorized volvo dealer, he called me one hour later and told me the problem was the throttle module and he would work to fix it. because i didn't think something like this should happen to a 4 year old car with very little mileage, i decided to check the internet to see if there was any news regarding volvo. i goggled volvo throttle and found two references to a newly opened investigation that described a scenario very similar to what we experienced. i decided to check this web site to learn more. as of today, august 29, 2005, my car is still not repaired. the mechanic is working with volvo. the mechanic has been told since aug. 25, that the volvo computer, which is necessary for the throttle replacement download, has been down for 4 business days. in addition to being put in a dangerous situation on the toll road with my young son, my car will cost close to $1000 to fix, and i have not had use of my car for 5 days! .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 39500 miles.

LLC. had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . initially, i took my 2001 volvo v70 station wagon to the dealer because the cruise control function was not working and the "check engine" light came on. they ran a diagnostic computer check and told me that everything came back fine -even though it was obvious that the cruise control was not working when we drove it around the lot. they said that if the computer did not detect an error they were not able to fix anything, although they suspected that the electronic throttle control might be causing the problem. they reset the computer so that the "check engine" light went off. a month later, i was pulling out into traffic from my driveway with my three-year old in the back seat and lost all power. the max speed i could go was about 10 mph. fortunately, i was able to pull off to the side of the road. it is a very busy uncontrolled access - i was fortunate that there wasn't more traffic as an accident would have occurred. there was no warning lights or indication that this was going to occur - it just stopped. i had the car towed to the volvo dealer who diagnosed a malfunctioning electronic throttle module. the car had 72,000 miles on it. i expressed my disappointment that a car with a reputation for safety would fail in such a way that could cause a terrible accident. i also lodged a complaint with volvo customer service. recently, i heard about the investigation on this same issue. i was directed to your website when i searched for additional information on the internet. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 82000 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Aug 20, 2005.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . we purchased a 2001 volvo v70 2.4t wagon 12-16-01 from the dealer, who had used it as a loaner vehicle. this complaint is regarding the throttle control. for about a month it would feel as if a plug was bad or a fuel line clogged when driving at a steady speed. it wasn't at first noticeable during acceleration. then a "reduced performance" message came on the dash. finally, on 8-20-05, the car stalled on the way to the dealer in reno to get it repaired. fortunately, we were in the right lane and managed to pull off the road out of traffic. just a matter of timing and this problem could well have been deadly. it restarted and we made it into the dealer. the throttle body was replaced and the pvc system cleaned, as the service manager stated the problem caused it to need cleaning. the total bill was $1,336.49. i feel volvo has a serious problem here, and judging by the number of complaints, which must be only a fraction of the number of incidents, it is only a matter of time before it causes deaths on the highway if it hasn't already. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 64458 miles.

Volvo V70 2001 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10147375

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Jan 09, 2006.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . my wife was on one of the busiest freeways in southern california during rush hour traffic, when our 2001 v-70 began missing and losing power. by the time she limped home to the next off ramp, she was traveling at approximately 20 miles an hour, in traffic moving nearly 60 miles an hour. obviously, this created a significant safety hazard for my wife and other travelers. she was able to drive the car to the dealer, calabasas volvo, at about 20-30 miles per hour. at the dealer, she was informed that the gas pedal linkage required replacement at approximately $300 (copy enclosed), and that the etm would be cleaned. i had already found information on the web that showed cleaning was ineffective, and the likelihood of continued safety risk. in fact, the information on the web explained that volvo has agreed to an extension of the warranty on this part to 200,000 miles or 10 years. i, frankly, was stunned that a car manufacturer would acknowledge such a fundamental design flaw and commit to such a long period of time for replacements for the effective life of the car. it appears that someone at volvo does recognize that the etm failure could cause injury or even death of the vehicle operator and occupants. i called the service department and urged them to replace the etm. to my absolute surprise, they explained that volvo has directed dealers to clean first, replace later, although they agreed that the etm would probably fail within a short period of time. now my wife is much nicer than me, and since i had some discussions with the calabasas volvo service department regarding their incompetence with the fan recall, they chose to give her the car back after the cleaning and she accepted it. within two miles, the car was experiencing the exact same symptoms that it had earlier in the day. in other words, volvo policy has placed my wife and family at risk of death or injury. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 44000 miles.

LLC. had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . on 6/2/06 i was driving on the freeway ( at about 60 mph), and suddenly my car slowed down and i could not accelerate, fortunately i was in the right hand lane and able to exit the freeway and slowly move to the side of the road, a warning light was on stating" engine performance reduced". i turned off the ignition and waited a few minutes. i restarted the engine and the warning light was not on, however, i was very concerned and called the dealer and was told to bring the car in. the car was a little hesitant at first but i was able to drive slowly on side streets, to the dealer. he kept the car overnight and diagnosed a problem with the etm, he cleaned the etm and downloaded new software. it was $20 for the parts and $307.00 for the labor! i have not had a recurrence of this problem with the etm. however, i have become aware of numerous complaints about this etm and spoke to the service department at my dealer, who had never mentioned it to me, and had never offered to check or clean the etm before this happened. he was aware of the etm failures. i asked about the extended the warranty volvo has put in place on the etm but the dealer says that is only for service after the cleaning is tried once. this means i will have to have another dangerous failure of the system before they will replace and pay for the service! i feel that volvo should have warned the car owners about this possible problem and should give the warranty to all their cars. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 60667 miles.

LLC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . beginning january 2007, our 2001 v70 would "shift hard" when shifting from "p" to "d" or from "r" to "d" or when accelerating from a low speed. we thought it was the weather causing the issue due to it being intermittent. it became worse and shift became harder. appt in april concluded it "may be" the tcm. software was upgraded and we were told there would be an "adjustment" period. all under warranty. took a week to fix what was noted as only needing 30 minutes to fix. end of june, called to state same thing is happening that the issue wasn't fixed. volvo checked warranty and contract ended just three weeks prior. july 10, took v70 in for "diagnostic" and we need a "new transmission". volvo will not take responsibility nor see the problem as pre-existing. nor will they see the issue as unresolved from the initial visit. no diagnostic apparently done the first time. coincidentally dealer reported there were more issues with the car such as suspension which was fixed just recently. we had put no more than a few hundred miles on the car since the last visit and all of these issues are just appearing, coincidentally after warranty expired. there were no issues less than 60 days ago, at least none reported to us. this incident has happened to other consumers at the same dealership. volvo is not cooperative and we had caught the mechanics in deceitful statements by "reminding" them that was already dealt with...funny how it was no longer something that needed to be fixed. the "new transmission" is still needed apparently after a total of only 80k miles on the car. it was at about 42k when we bought it in dec of 2003. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 81500 miles.

LLC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP . 2001 volvo v70 t5 (1) recognized strong smell of gasoline in garage over period of 2-3 days. i inspected the vehicle after a short drive (5-6 miles) and discovered gasoline leaking from the gas tank area, staining the bottom of the tank and dripping onto the ground. (2) vehicle represented a safety and health hazard due to the leaking fuel. (3) vehicle was immediately towed to a local volvo dealer service center and diagnosed with a "crack in top of fuel pump." the dealership "replaced faulty fuel pump (58r) observing no further leaks at this time" at owner's expense. note: further investigation by the owner revealed volvo recall no. r176 (nhtsa recall # 07v152000) discovered faulty fuel pumps of the same type and manufacture on 2001-02 volvo s60 sedans sold or registered in arizona and nevada. this is obviously a defective fuel pump, poses a threat to personal and public safety and i believe volvo should accept responsibility for replacing these fuel pumps free of charge to vehicle owners and/or reimbursing replacement expenses. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 86915 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Dec 03, 2007.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . i am the original owner of a 2001 volvo v70 station wagon with 88,000 miles on it. it has received its regularly scheduled servicing. i have brought this vehicle back to the dealer numerous times, once while under an extended warranty and now while it is no longer under extended warranty service. the reason was to have them check and repair the slipping transmission. the slip occurs between 1st & 2nd, and 2nd & 3rd. this is about the 20-40mph range. when it slips, the tran sometimes revs up to 4,000 and the engine just revs up for a few seconds, (in a stalling-like fashion) then the transmission grabs with a hard slam/audible clunking noise. i have told the dealer that this is very dangerous as it leaves you in an "out-of-control" state. they dealer can find no codes on the transmission to document the problem, but does agree that the slippage occurs. they have done s/w updates to make it shift better. we just spent $1500.00 on making the problem go away, but yet it is still there. the transmission has been slipping since before the last extended warranty servicing, but has recently become very much escalated since even coming out of service. i don't know how they could even have sent us home in this car with my family in it. it immediately went back for repair the next day after the $1500 servicing. no accidents yet, but i fear driving it at all, since the slip could result in total loss of power to the wheels while the automatic transmission shifts from 1st to 2nd gear. i have told the service technicians at volvo of this concern, but they have not resolved the problem. their advice is to purchase a new car on trade-in or spend $5,000 on a new transmission. this should not be happening to a car driving only on city streets for less than 45 minutes at a time and at only 88,000 miles. i firmly believe the problem is a potentially deadly one in that it could happen to anyone at anytime and anywhere in stop and go traffic. *tr .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 70000 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Mar 27, 2010.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . i was drive about 45 mph on a busy road and suddenly my car lost acceleration and check engine light came on and dash board showing "performance reduced". it recreated a unsafe situation and i had to turn the emergency light on and slowly pulled of to the side of the road. it has occurred twice now. next business day i took the car to a volvo dealer and i performed a software upgrade on the etm. but i don't think that will solve the problem, it only lessen the sensitivity of the etm to mask the problem, sooner of later, this "performance reduced" will come back again and an unsafe situation could be more dangerous depending on the where and the driving conditions. *cn.Mileage was 66557 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on May 15, 2010.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE . i have a 2001 volvo v-70 t-5 with 105,000 miles on the vehicle. i have noticed the car is surging while driving on the highway. while trying to pass another vehicle the car began to surge and i had to brake and get back into the right lane. after doing some investigating i have found out that this is probably the result of the volvo etm problem that is known to exist. this incident is a real concern to me as volvo marketing is known to mention "safety" at every turn. this is not a good situation and this could cause severe accidents in the future. this problem fix should go beyond the 10 year 200,000 mile that volvo has initiated. this should be a long term recall. *tr.Mileage was 105000 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Sept 17, 2010.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . automatic transmission on 2001 volvo v70 2.4t - transmission service required light is on, check engine warning light is on, as well as orange exclamation. also no delayed shifts. got the feeling this should be a recall item. while stopped at a light or stop sign i hear the transmission ?falling out of place? and shortly after the gas pedal is applied the transmission grabs with a hard slam/audible clunking noise but for a second you have no control of vehicle and if on a hill it rolls a little bit before transmission kicks in. no accidents yet, but i fear driving it at all, since the slip could result in total loss of power to the wheels while the automatic transmission shifts. i have told the service technicians at volvo in tulsa, ok about this issue, but they have not resolved the problem. their advice is to purchase a new car on trade-in or spend $5,000 on a new transmission. this should not be happening to volvo even at 140,000 miles. i firmly believe the problem is a potentially deadly one in that it could happen to anyone at anytime and anywhere in stop and go traffic. now the vehicle's electronic climate control is dead (no power to it) and the same service technicians at the same dealer now tells me it needs to be replaced for $1400. the sunroof also has a mind of its own and works whenever it wants. sounds like a lot of electric issues at the same time which leads me to believe it is not a transmission problem but a computer/electric issue. *tr.Mileage was 139000 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Sept 20, 2007.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i had just purchased my 2001 volvo v70 used from a reputable dealer when my wife noticed that the transmission would occasionally "slip" in and out of gear. i did not drive the car very often, so i did not experience the problem for another month or so. when you take you foot off the gas to coast or slow down for a turn the transmission completely disengages. when you push on the gas expecting to continue to keep going the engine revs - because there is no transmission engaged- and then suddenly "slams' back into gear. this condition has been with us now for several years. the car has been to the volvo shop twice and they claimed there were no codes showing up on their test equipment...and by the way that'll be another $300! i've learned to baby the car, and drive with this dangerous condition because i know a new transmission for this car would cost more than the car is worth. after checking with edmuds, i have come to realize there are dozens if not hundreds of people out there with the exact same problem as mine, and volvo appears to either be clueless, or not willing to do anything about it. my car has been acting this way since i purchased it with only 70,000 miles. *tr.Mileage was 70000 miles.

VOLVO V70 2001 car safety problem was reported on Apr 02, 2014.VOLVO V70 2001, manufactured by Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES . i noticed the tail light brake bulbs were burning out quickly. after getting a ticket i stoped driving it until i could determine the cause. volvo lists a brake relay recall. brake light fuses and relays are in 4 locations in the car. they are: 1. under the hood in the engine control unit ecu, 2.the passenger compartment a. central control unit ccu and b. fuse panel by drivers side door post 3. rear control unit in the cargo compartment. the problem was an electrical engineering design where a steel race that surrounds the taillight bulbs transfers the electrical current is designed to fail. as the bulb heats up it transfers the heat to the plate and plastic pins that hold it in place under pressure from the spring steel parts of the removable bulb socket unit. as the plastic pins weaken and move away under pressure and heat from the bulb socket spring steel keepers, and conductors of voltage and current, the current is throttled down to a pin point as the plate moves away from the bulb creating more heat and arcing to melt the steel race surround the bulbs that supply the current. the replaced bulbs seem to work for a short time as the connection is reestablished when the bulb socket is removed and replaced, and the connection is reestablished for a time, but it will soon over heat and fail from the weakened and melted plastic lens. brake light failure results not from a failed part, relay, fuse or wire, but from an engineering design flaw that was recognized and eliminated in the 2005 models. ford and volvo never mention this. a recall could amount to six hundred to a thousand dollars per car for the 4 lenses with labor. the arcing in the wiring may also cause other computer failures as the transmission also has an electrical problem in the kickdown process that causes an abnormal delay in neutral gear and hard engagement of the lower gear. .0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 128000 miles.
