2014 Volvo XC60 problems

“When I purchased my 2014 Volvo XC 60 I was told that it was in good overall condition and believe that after driving it for the vehicle in full and brought it back because it needed a current inspection. Within four days of taking it home after the inspection, the PCV valve went bad and I had a minor leak in the middle center top of the windshield that dripped in and left watermarks on my headliner. So again I called the dealer and explained to them what was going on. I took it back they corrected the PCV valve and said that they had my windshield Repaired and sealed by a professional windshield installer. Once again, I picked up my new car and I went home with it. The first rainstorm we got the inside of my car was flooded to the point where it shorted out my sunroof switch so now I can use my sunroof and there is mildew smell all through my car , floorboard on the driver side side gets soaked along with everything else from about the center all the way to the left and down the side of the windshield I feel that more than half of that windshield is not secured properly in there and sealed and could lead to serious injury to myself or possibly Someone else.

“The contact owns a 2014 Volvo XC60. The contact stated that the vehicle was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil. The AWD system light was illuminated, and the message “AWD Disabled” was displayed. The maintenance light was illuminated. Additionally, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the front passenger’s side of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where the dipstick and gasket were replaced, but the failure recurred. The dealer provided the contact with the cost for the diagnostic test and the repair. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted by email and mail, but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.”

“I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT UNINTENDED ACCELERATION RECENTLY EXPERIENCED WHILE PARKING MY CAR IN A PARKING LOT AND THE MANUFACTURING CANNOT TELL ME IF AND WHEN ANY RECALLS WERE UPDATED ON MY CAR PRIOR TO PURCHASE. THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING AFTER I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM ACCELERATOR AND STARTED TO BREAK INTO A STOP SO I COULD PARK THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT. BECAUSE THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD IN FULL THROTTLE IT CAUSED ME TO CRASH INTO THE BRICK BUILDING. THE HIGH VROOM NOISE STARTED AS SOON AS I TURNED INTO THE PARKING SPOT AND STARTED TO BREAK. THE AUTOMATIC BREAKING SYSTEM NEVER ENGAGED WHICH IN THIS MODEL SHOULD HAVE PREVENTED THE CRASH. THE BREAKS WERE OF NO USE SINCE THE HIGH SPEED IN LESS THAN 4 FEET OF THE PARKING SPOT AND WALL. THE CAR IS NEW WITH ONLY ABOUT 1200-1300 MILES AND I AM BEING TOLD THAT IT WAS MY FAULT WHEN I KNOW IT WAS ELECTRONIC FAILURE CONTROLLING THE ACCELERATION. THE DAY BEFORE IN A PARK POSITION ON A SUNNY DAY THE WIPERS WENT ON AUTOMATICALLY AND I HAD TROUBLE MAKING THEM STOP. WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY PRIOR TO THE ACCIDENT THE SIDE MIRRORS KEPT AUTOMATICALLY ON THEIR OWN MOVE TO A DOWNWARD POSITION MAKING IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AND I HAD TO…”

“I HAVE RECEIVED TWO RECALL NOTICES FOR DEFECTIVE DRIVER AND FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT FASTENERS (NHTSA RECALL 20V-378). THE NOTICES ARE DATED 29 AUG 2020 AND 9 DEC 2020. I HAVE CALLED THE LOCAL VOLVO DEALER REPEATEDLY TO SCHEDULE FOR COMPLETION OF THIS RECALL. EACH TIME THEY SAY THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS AND APOLOGIZE. IN THE MEANWHILE, THE RISK OF THE SEAT BELT FAILING PERSISTS. MORE THAN SIX MONTHS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE INITIAL NOTICE WHICH I CONSIDER TO BE AN EXCESSIVE PERIOD OF TIME. WHAT CAN BE DONE TO EXPEDITE THE COMPLETION OF THIS RECALL? ANY ADVICE YOU CAN PROVIDE, OR ACTIONS YOU COULD TAKE WOULD BE APPRECIATED. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERATION OF THIS REQUEST.
