Voluptuous Volvo
With rebates and discounts, we got about 10% off MSRP. We got a Costco discount of 6% off MSRP which is basically invoice price then added rebates. Shop around and then shop around some more. Working with internet sales at the dealership instead of showing up was where we got the best price. Our local Darrell Waltrip Volvo had the best sales rep but absolutely worst pricing and their manager was extremely difficult to deal with on two separate occasions. I will avoid ever buying a car there. But the car technology is off the charts and it’s elegant without being overly busy like some other cars. The ride is as smooth as a bottle of Col. E.H Taylor single barrel bourbon with the sophistication of a Johnnie Walker Blue Label. Our 7 yr old loves the built in child seat, and our 14 yr old loves the Bluetooth and Apple car play. I drove it home from Louisville and rarely touched the brake or gas for about 100 miles while using the adaptive cruise control and semi autonomous auto pilot. It’s sexy yet extremely safe. We love our new Volvo XC90 T6. Don’t drink and drive.

After 3 years, the car still has bugs
We got a 2018 model thinking that the bugs by now would be fixed. Almost all the call functionality is centered around the Sensus console which simply fails! There is a always a lag when starting the car before the console responds. The touch screen is so so and it messes up the driver profiles all the time. We backing up, the rearview camera takes forever to come on and you either have to just sit there or just back up with eye sight - my 2013 Nissan Leaf has a much better console. Also the rear passenger side door lock is not working after 3 months. Very disappointed in Volvo.

Dream Car Turned Nightmare
Bought my dream car. About a year into the car my suspension fails - take it in for service they say it was a glitch and all is fixed. My car rides lower than it is supposed to and the air tank for the suspension never seems to be able to fill up. Next issue - there is no sensor (so they tell me) for my rear hatch but when you put things in on the rear right side the hatch door comes down on you. Thought I was being picky and decided we could live with it. Then all 3 key batteries went out at the same time - weird I know. replaced batteries keys still did not work. Took it in and they said the keys has a "glitch" in them and they know about it so they replaced the pins that hold the batteries and that should work. Ok fine. My car is a glitch in the matrix. Then took it in for oil change today - I need new brakes and tires AGAIN - just replaced a year ago. My mechanic said there is an issue with how it is driving (I stopped using VOLVO service) and he will look into it for me. So was happy someone was figuring this out. Now the top engine mount is cracked. This car is 3.5 years old. I had a Sequoia for 15 years and not once did someone call and say the engine mount is cracked. WTF! Will never ever ever buy a VOLVO again.

The tires on the XC90 are terrible
I bought a 2019 xc90 T5. The tires are worn down after 14,000 miles. All four tires need to be replaced. The cost for four new tires from the local Volvo dealer is $1,400. I would have never bought this car, if I knew that the tires wear out this quickly.
