Radio Problems
My XC-90 has had very unusual problems, so the dealer informs me. One month out of warranty, the rear bearings needed to be replaced. The headlight covers are pitted and dis colored. The wheel nuts had to be replaced twice. The first time for rust the second time for wear???? The very last repair and most upsetting was for a new infotainment module. The problem began when the radio began looking like a disco. The lights began flashing and periodically the radio would shut off and the display would go blank. I can live without the radio, but when this problem corrupted the Air bag system to the point it might not work, I had to have it fixed at a cost of$1350.00 Volvo would do nothing

Ok so far
We purchased a used 2004 XC90 in June 2011 with 98,000 miles. We have 111,000 to date. Only issue was we had to replace timing belt at dealer suggestion, otherwise normal maintenance. So far it has been trouble free except for routine maintenance. I hope we got a good one since I plan to keep it for at least another 50,000 miles.
4th Set of Tires with just 83,00 miles
I have had my SUV since the end of 2004. I have just gone through my fourth set of tires at 83,000 miles. Volvo Customer Service takes zero responsibility for this obvious problem. They blamed it on the three tire manufacturers. Also, it is a very expensive car to repair and maintain. At 78,000 miles I replaced 5 ignition coils for a total of $345.00 in just parts no labor, Upper engine mount repair for $579.00. At 75,000 miles I had to replace the fuel pump, Idler pully, timing bel,t tentioner, brake vac switch, etc. Even in the beginning I had to replace the brakes and front rotors at 22,000 miles. Think twice
Transmissions and bearings
We bought this car from an original owner with about 90,000 miles on it. I had read about the transmission issues but this car had just had a complete transmission replacement from Volvo at 87,000 miles. We felt like we would get another 100k or so out of the replacement. Turns out we were wrong. At 130k the transmission started slipping and we traded it in on a new car. During the 40k miles we owned it we also had to replace the rear bearings and the front drivers side drive shaft. We also put a new headliner in. When it was running it was a great riding car. Handled snow great and was a beautiful car. Just too many issues that cost $$$
