I never want a luxury vehicle again

I have a 2015 that I got used last year and just keep sinking money into it even though I take it in for its regular maintenance and oil changes. Keep in mind that if you own a Volvo, the clip in your gear shifter is almost guaranteed to break. Mine already did at 2 years old and I don't do anything different than I did with my Jeep Cherokee. Before owning my S60 all I ever wanted was a Cadillac, but now the last thing I want in the world is a luxury vehicle. Unless you have extra cash laying around don't buy a Volvo. Its all hype.

Blown engine and no apparent reason

Never owned a Volvo before now and never will again. Bought used with 100,000 miles. Was told that it had one owner prior that was meticulous about it. Seemed like an ok car while I had it a whole 5 months. The engine ended up blowing and had very oil without letting me aware of the low oil. Brought it back to the dealership and no cause for the low oil was found. The awful part was I wasn't even due for my first oil change yet. Volvo has done nothing about this issue and the dealership did nothing except offered to put a used engine in for $5000. I'm already paying$13,000 for this car so I obviously will not put an engine in. Going to trade towards a more reliable car and company.

THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE RECALLED - TIRES ARE BAD

2015 Volvo S60 T6 R-Design 4dr Sedan AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)

I have received 3 flat tires in 6 months. 2 of the flat tires were blow outs on the expressway and I almost caused 2 huge accidents while my 7 year old daughter was in the car. This car needs to be recalled. There is NO SPARE TIRE and when i got all 3 of my flats the lighter socket did not work for me to fix the tire. Continental tires are horrible and not safe. DO NOT BUY THIS CAR WITH THE CONTINENTAL TIRES.

Reliable Luxury car with sporty attitude

2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Twincharger 8A)

I had an S80 8 cylinder, S80 turbo inline 6 cylinder, S80 T5 turbo 4 cylinder, now this car is a 2015.5 S60 T6 twincharger with every option availabe. I bought it with 74000 miles, paid $13300 because it was a theft recovery with no damage. I've had it 3 years 2 months on November 27th 2022. Odometer reads 189500. Gets its oil changed every 10000. The TPMS light comes on when Wisconsin's temperature is close to zero but eventually goes off since the tire pressure is correct so that's not any negative because the oil change technician says they see it on every brand they service. In the past month now that temps are below freezing, the low battery indicator lights up when I get in before I push the start button, even though it's a new battery and the alternator/battery load test states everything is good. Technician says with this many miles it could be a loose connection somewhere but not on the terminals since he said those are tight and clean, so that's not a negative either just something to keep an eye on. Nothing else is wrong, so far. It has plenty of power to merge into 80 mile an hour traffic, pull my 3300 pound trailer and it's happy to run all day(with the radar detector on) at 100mph, plus the average mpg readout always hovers at 28.5 sometimes on longer drives it will bump 30 but with my heavy foot in city it drops back to 28.5, a little less in the winter.
