Two problems related to structure have been reported for the 1998 Volvo S70. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While braking, the vehicle vibrated. Took vehicle to dealership and the mechanic indicated there was a crack in the brake master cylinder. The abs light illuminated, the oxygen sensor was replaced, the vacuum line was replaced, the upper torque arm bushing broke, the door locking system broke, the inside door panel came apart.
Faulty dash clips that retain the dashboard to the firewall. I was told by the lead technican at bob pinkus Volvo in colorado springs, CO that this was a known defect. The clips break leading to a squeeky dash that Volvo is not willing to address out of warranty. I now have no confidence in dirving this car as I do not know when the dash will seperate, if in an accident, and severly injure either myself or a member of my family.
