2015 Volvo V60 problems

“The engine consumes an excessive amount of oil, requiring the addition of about one quart every few hundred miles. There are no visible external leaks, and the issue appears to be due to internal engine components such as piston rings allowing oil into the combustion chamber. This poses a risk of engine damage and loss of power. The problem has been observed consistently and confirmed by a repair shop. No crash or safety incident has occurred, but the vehicle's reliability and safety are compromised.”

“VEHICLE HAD BEEN FUNCTION PROPERLY UPON DEPARTING SUFFOLK COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE SELDEN NY. DRIVER MADE SEVERAL TURNS AND BRAKED MULTIPLE TIMES.

DIVER DOWNSHIFTED THAT CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO MODERATELY SLOW. DRIVER IMPACTED VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF HER AT APPROXIMATELY 20 M.P.H. IN ADDITION TO BRAKES NOT FUNCTIONING AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY INDICATING A MORE SYSTEMIC/CATASTROPHIC MECHANICAL FAILURE.

“THE STEERING WHEEL PADDLE SHIFTERS AUTOMATICALLY TURN THEMSELVES OFF. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IN SITUATION WHERE ENGINE BRAKING IS NECESSARY (INCLEMENT WEATHER, STEEP DOWN GRADES. WHEN USING THE PADDLES TO DOWN SHIFT AND SLOW THE CAR, THEY WILL AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF, THE CAR THEN SHIFTS INTO HIGHER GEARS, CAUSING THE CAR TO ACCELERATE (WHEN GOING DOWNHILL OR WHILE SLOWING IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS). THE CAR CAN BE PUT INTO "SPORT MODE", BUT THIS CAUSE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO BECOME VERY TOUCHY, WHICH IS UNSAFE IN SLIPPERY CONDITION. THE PADDLE SHIFTERS SHOULD NEVER AUTOMATICALLY TURN THEMSELVES OFF, IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE THE DRIVER THAT ENGAGES AND DISENGAGES THEM.”

“The contact owned a 2015 Volvo V60. The contact initially received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V378000 (Seat Belts). One- and one-half years after receiving the notice, the recall repair was performed at a local dealer. While driving 25 MPH, the contact suffered syncope and struck a tree.

The passenger struck her head on the windshield. The contact and the passenger were transported to the hospital. The passenger was treated for a severe spinal injury, severe lacerations to her head, a paralyzed vocal cord, fractured ribs, and sternum, a hematoma in her chest, and a fractured right index finger.

“Water is leaking inside my 2015 Volvo V60 from the windshield creating a distraction while driving. The Service Rep. from my Volvo dealer said they do no repair windshield seals, only windshield replacement. I brought my car to an auto glass repair shop. After 45 minutes of diagnosis, the mechanic confirmed there is a leak in the windshield seal. The windshield on my vehicle is the original and has never been damage or replaced.”

“The latch on the driver side door stuck in the open position and the door latch would not function. The door remained unlatched and unsecured. All of the door latches were replaced at the dealer on 28 Dec 2020 per recall R89978. The problem hasn't been confirmed by the dealer yet but is scheduled. The car was parked at the time so no indication of a problem until I sat in the drivers seat and the door remained ajar with the handle stuck in the open position.”
