2006 Volvo C-Class problems

“I HAVE A 2006 VOLVO C70 AND THE TIERS STARTED TO LOOSE AIR. WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED I FOUND OUT THAT THREE OF THE FOUR 18' RIMS HAD CRACKS ON THE INSIDE OF THE RIM EDGE...WITH A LITTLE RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 VOLVO C70. IT IS AN OUTRAGE THAT VOLVO DOES NOT YET HAVE TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WHO KNOWS HOW MANY ACCIDENTS HAVE OR WILL HAPPEN DUE TO A TIRE GOING FLAT ON THIS MODEL AND RIM SIZE. I KNOW THAT SOMETIMES RIMS CAN GET DAMAGED HOWEVER," ALL ARE CRACKING IN THE SAME AREA". I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE ALL THREE RIMS TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. R.

“MY CAR WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT. I CAME OUT TO GET IN MY CAR AND UPON STARTING MY CAR THE AIRBAG WARNING URGENT LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY CAR TO THE VOLVO DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR. VOLVO OF WINTER PARK. I LEFT MY CAR. THEY KEPT MY CAR A FEW DAYS AND I PICKED MY CAR UP ON A THURSDAY. I DROVE MY CAR TO MY SISTERS PROPERTY ON SATURDAY. THE CAR DID NOT MOVE ON SUNDAY AND UPON GETTING INTO THE CAR ON MONDAY MY AIRBAG URGENT LIGHT ONCE AGAIN CAME ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 WEEKS IN A ROW. EACH TIME I WOULD RETURN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND PICK IT UP ON THURSDAY AND MONDAY THE LIGHT WOULD BE BACK ON. TODAY MY CAR HAD BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP OVERNIGHT FOR A LINER REPAIR. I RETURNED THIS AFTERNOON TO PICK UP MY CAR. I SIT DOWN IN IT TURN THE IGNITION AND THE AIRBAG URGENT LIGHT IS ON FOR THE FOUTH TIME. I HAVE ONCE AGAIN LEFT MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP. IN 2005 I HAD BOTH MY AIRBAGS IN MY PONTIAC SUNFIRE DEPLOY WHILE MY CAR WAS IDLING IN A TURN LANE WAITING TO MAKE A TURN INTO A SHOPPING CENTER. IT PUNCTURED A HOLE IN MY HEART AND CHRUSHED A SHUNT THAT WAS IN MY HEAD FROM A PREVIOUS ACCIDENT. IT BURNT MY CHEST, GAVE ME 2 BLACK EYES AND A MELON ON MY…”

“About 6 months ago I was driving at night and my left headlight went out and about 3 minutes later my other headlight went out? I had to pull over there and wait till day light. When I got home I took the headlights out to find bare wires on both of them? They were just disintegrated!?!? I called Volvo took find out about a new wire harness and was told I have to buy the whole engine wire assembly, costing over $3000.00. I bought 2 more headlight assemblies online and had the same problem!?!? When I tried to change the bulb the coating on the wire just fell off!?!?!? I have heard in other Volvo Forums other people have had this problem with Volvo's headlight wiring problem!?!? It needs to be recalled before someone gets killed if they haven't already!?!?? I can send pics.”

“DRIVER DOOR OPENS WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS WHILE LOCKED OR UNLOCKED, TOP UP, WINDOWS UP. IT HAS HAPPENED IN CITY AND ON HIGHWAY. TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS AS WELL AS LOW SPEEDS. IT COMES AJAR AND THE INTERIOR LIGHT COMES ON AND MESSAGE THAT DRIVER DOOR IS OPEN.. IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY BUT IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE FREQUENT UNTIL NOW IT IS ALMOST DAILY. IT BEGAN PROBABLY 2 YEARS AGO”

“THE VOLVO HAS A PROBLEM ON VALVE BODY ON TRANSMISSION, IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR VOLVO AND IT DOESN'T MATTER IS LOW MILEAGE OR HIGH MILEAGE AFTER THIS PROBLEM HAPPEND FOR MY CAR, BY RESEARCH ABOUT THE ISSUE I FOUND, IS COMMON PROBLEM AND I THINK VOLVO HAS TO RECALL THE CARS FOR TRANSMISSION VALVE BODY ISSUE!!! *JS”
