I HAVE HAD THE XCV70 ONLY TWO WEEKS AND I AM HAVING VIBRATION PROBLEMS SIMILAR TO THE ONES MENTIONED ON THE LATEST REVIEW. PIRELLI IS GOING TO PUT ON FOUR NEW TIRES AND I HOPE THAT WILL FIX THE ISSUE. IF THIS IS RESOLVED I FEEL WE WILL ENJOY THE CAR. IF NOT I WILL GIVE VOLVO A CHANCE TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND IF THEY DONT, I AM GOING TO BEGIN LEMON LAW PROCEEDINGS. A 40K CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE ISSUES.

"Vidar" the XC is a great boy. We have owned several Volvos during the past 20 years and this is our first Volvo we have owned since Ford took over. However, we have been surprised that Ford has not influenced Volvo at all. This car drives, handles, and has the same mannerisms as our previous Volvos. This car continues to bring me back to the reason why I bought my first Volvo in Sweden 20 years ago. It's roomy, practical, fuel efficient (about 23 avg.), and a car that you are always happy to get into. Knowing that Volvo has never let me down on trips and is one of the safest cars on the road always reassures me why I purchase them. Don't let just any mechanic work on a Volvo.

For a $40k car, it has not lived up to the hype. And forget about the customer service where we had purchased. Have had problems with head lamps and directional lamps, broken/clogged washer fluid lines, etc. Nice drive, nice looking car, but quality was surprising for such a pricey car. Not totally disappointed, but also which I had known about the very sad trade-in value. Lost over 10K just driving off the lot.

Being a strong BMW straight six fan, I find the engine in the new XC to perform smoothly and evenly with fair power delivery. There is a little turbo thrust & roughness when shifting out of 1st on a hard acceleration. So far I've had no problems. It was a toss up between this and the BMW 325 IX wagon. The BMW is a little more solid and handles better although it is smaller & not as versatile.
Overseas delivery headaches

Took European delivery this past summer. I arranged for the car to be delivered to a dealer other than the one from which it was purchased. Once the car finally arrived (EIGHT weeks later), the dealer (Rickenbaugh, Denver) was very rude and unhelpful. Because the car was not purchased at their dealership, they claimed, taking delivery of my car was more of a headache for them than it was worth. They did not check the car over as promised by Volvo. Additionally, the car sustained significant damage in shipping, and the marine insurance claimed the damage was regular wear and tear. Only after many emails they finally sent me a check.
