I WAS NEAREST MY LOCAL MECHANIC SHOP (ELDORADO AUTOMOTIVE) AND THE TECH PLUGGED IN THE COMPUTER GADGET THAT READS WHAT IS HAPPENING AND TOLD ME A HOUSING UNDER THE HOOD NEEDED TO BE REMOVED TO INVESTIGATE FURTHER. I TOOK THE CAR IN THE NEXT MORNING AND FOUND OUT THE MY TIMING BELT WAS ABOUT 1/2 SHREDDED AND READY TO BREAK AT ANY MOMENT.

THE AWD SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING. THE VEHICLE WAS TO SPIN THE FRONT WHEELS CONSTANTLY. ALSO TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE WANTS TO DRIFT INTO THE OTHER LANES ON ITS OWN. DEALER TELLS ME IT IS THE ANGLE GEAR SLEEVE ON THE TRANSFER CASE OR THE TRANSFER CASE GEAR. TO ME ITS OBVIOUS THAT VOLVO DESIGNED THE PART TO FAIL. HOW CAN GEAR THAT IS SEALED FAIL WITH NORMAL USE? SO THE REPAIR WILL COULD COST UP TO $3600. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ON THE WEB. THIS IS SO COMMON ITS RIDICULES. NEVER BUY A VOLVO AGAIN. I BOUGHT THIS CAR TO HAVE A SAFE AWD. OH IT S SAFE... AS LONG AS ITS IN YOUR DRIVEWAY.
