New car post delivery in first 5K miles: incurred multiple problems with the car that included electrical, sensors, tires. Each time it was a major hassle to get these issues understood and correctly repaired. Volvo demonstrates no accountability to the owner at the dealer or higher level the when problems arise. Just a "sorry". Volvo cars used to be a solid service after sales oriented company, now they are completely focused on sales as evidenced in my case.

Like another reviewer, we have have several flat tires in one year. We have two S60s and it's the same problem with both. After 12,000 miles, the tire lights came on and wouldn't go off when we put in more air. I brought it into Volvo Service and was told it was a technology glitch and it was fixed. A week later, they were on again. I brought the car in again and now they're saying that we have to replace all four tires because they're so worn down. This makes absolutely no sense. We are in our 50's, are very safe drivers and drive the speed limits. This car is only a year old and Volvo wants $1000 for the new tires. Pathetic.

I have owned many new and used cars, Audi, Lexus, Infiniti, Chevy, Hyundai. I have never had so many problems with a car. I leased this new Platinum Plus package S60 after less than one year it was in the shop. I had the same problem twice with airbag sensors in the passenger seat, I was without my car for two weeks. It is now in the shop for an engine rebuild. This car as 30,000 miles on it. I have 4 months left on my lease and I'm hoping Volvo will just buy it back now.

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.
