I was pulling into a parking spot. When I went to accelerate, the car over-accelerated. The engine revved so high, I could not control it. I had nowhere to go and hit a cement wall, totalling my car. All the airbags went off. I did walk away, though. I researched this issue online and it seems there are many instances of this happening. No warnings whatsoever. No recalls at all.

Yesterday I took my one year old granddaughter to North Carolina, which is an hour and a half drive away. We had breakfast with family members and I loaded her into the back seat. When I closed the door it looked as if the door closed, but as I began to drive, the door swung open. I attempted to close the door again, and the latch would not connect to the hook inside of the driver side rear door. I ended up needing to have my son sit in the back seat and hold the door closed the entire ride home (an hour and a half) to make sure that the door would not open again. I am currently driving my "new" car with a ratchet strap going from door to door to hold the door closed so that I can go to…

4 new Bridgestone WEATHERPEAK BL 235/45R18 tires were purchased for "momâs" low mileage vehicle. 8 months / 3,850 miles later, while my daughter was driving it in the center lane of the highway, the front left tire suddenly exploded! Fortunately, there were no injuries but had there been another vehicle at her side, this might have been a different story. The vehicle was towed back to the tire dealer to have the tire replaced. Combined with Bridgestoneâs known past tire issues, we are now afraid to drive on the highway on these tires!!

The vehicle was sold with automatic 911 in the case of an accident. That is no longer functional since it uses 3G. Volvo chose to use 3G even though it was supposed to stop working.
