Battery Problems of Volvo S60

In October 2007, I inquired of fields Volvo of waukesha wisconsin, about a malfunctioning temperature gage. The gage would often display a faulty reading, showing that the car was overheating when in fact it was not. When I bought my car in for an inspection of the matter, jason fischer service advisor, informed me that I needed an electronics bo ( see attached receipt). He assured me that was the problem, so I agreed to allow him to replace it and was charged $537. 15 for the procedure. However, a year later in July 2008, the problem resurfaced. Eventually, the cooling fan malfunctioned and would not shut off. This problem also caused the battery to drain. I took my car to auto werks import centre in milwaukee, wisconsin, who through research of the problem, found that there was a recall issued for the cooling fan in November 2004. I was also charged $200. 53 for replacement of a temperature sensor and the thermostat. (see attached receipt) as a satisfied Volvo customer for over 10 years, I feel that had thorough research been done prior to malfunctioning of the cooling fan, excess charges could have been avoided. I am therefore seeking a partial refund of maintenance charges. Your immediate response to my request would be most appreciated.

I have a 2004 Volvo S60 with 57,700 miles. All work on the vehicle has been done by Volvo. Recently, when the ac is on, the fan speed has stopped responding to adjustments. Nothing happens when I try to adjust the speed and then, on its own, the speed will change a few minutes later. When I turn the car off, the fan continues to run for at least five minutes. I'm afraid that one day it won't turn off and will drain the battery. The Volvo rep and an independent mechanic feel that the repair may be costly and just to do the diagnostic is expensive, so I haven't had it done while I decide whether to just trade in the vehicle.
