We had some minor problems with the headlights and some other things, all of which were covered under the warrantee. Just routine maintenance otherwise. The wagon is great for long trips and the safety features work great -- if you happen to get rear-ended.
7 years of enjoyment

My Volvo V70 AWD XC has been a great car, never any problems - just regular maintenance. It still looks and runs great. I've driven it across the county a couple of times with my 2 kids and we have all enjoyed the ride! I hope my 7 year old will enjoy it as his first car 10 years from now.

W ebought used and naw have 49K miles. There were definitely some significant electrical problems at first, but buyers should be aware that a recall has addressed this issue (at least for me). We have also experienced the ignition problems noted by others. Otherwise, a very nice alternative to a minivan for your family automobile.
No Problems whatsoever, EVER!

The car the lasts forever, and appearently it has. People buy luxury cars like this one, and think that, since they are expensive, that you can treat them like crap and trash them. Some people are just too hard on their cars. We bought are '99 V70 wagon and have had no problems whatsoever. We have treated it well and it has treated us well. I also do believe that sometime, people do just happen to get a bad car, but not everybody. Our car is a great car, great value, still turning heads, very "Classic" looking and extremily comfortable. And if your going to buy a nice car like this, dont be cheep and buy a non- leather car, it just doesnt make since!

I bought this used from the original owner for my son as his first car. I bought it because of its reputation as a safe car. What a piece of junk. I had the ABS module rebuilt ($170) because of dash lights and performance issues related to it. Dealer would have wanted close to $800 to fix - robbers. Shortly thereafter, it was stalling intermittently. Lo and behold, I needed to replace the ETM module (which was a Volvo defect) but it was done for free, however needed to replace the pedal assembly since it was continuing to stall ($235). Bottom line - it is a super expensive car to maintain and I regret buying it for my son. It will send me to the poor house if I keep it. Safe but costly.
