Four problems related to equipment have been reported for the 2006 Volvo S40. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Ive had car 3 yrs and within last few monthe notice large water puddles on rear floors windows were all closed took it to my mechanic and states channels for sunroof were flawed as I later found out under computer car complaints Volvo had class action on this few yrs back but I did not own car then there were many complaints from car owners re this issue and Volvo will do nothing im having new channels put in to drain water but its only temp as its a flaw that will continue to happen my electris is starting to short out car smells moldy/musty and will be worth very little I need some feedback on this issue as car is becoming totally worthless.
The sunroof leaks and causes puddles in front driver side and driver side passenger side, rust and mill-dew smell also electrical issues in the vehicle why? even after short time of purchasing a car. Volvo shouldn't make customers pay for this expense cost since most of these issues seem to plague many Volvo customers.
Vehicle passenger rear floor flooding continuously. One day the windshield wipers wouldn't turn off and none of the interior electrical equipment would work, no power windows or locks. Drove to Volvo, they stated clogged sunroof drain and that floormat had affected the ecm under the steering column. They cleared drain and cleaned floor for $1k. A year later the front drivers seat floor started flooding. Experienced many electrical problems since. Including an instance entering the highway when the power steering seemed to go out and the car stalled. The screen told me to pull over safely. Very scary.
The contact owns a 2006 Volvo S40. The driver side door would not lock intermittently and would making a humming noise in warm weather. The dealer repaired the door so that it locks, but it continues to hum. The front passenger speaker does not work. The dealer has made three attempts to repair the speaker and the humming in the door. The contact is also attempting to implement the lemon law. The current mileage was 28,100 and failure mileage was 6,000. Updated 04-02-08.
