Two problems related to seat belt have been reported for the 1999 Volvo S80. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Air bag light came on. Had the car checked by a Volvo service garage. The technician said that the srs (supplemental restraint system) module needs to be replaced. I was informed the pyrotechnics in the seat belt system and the front air bags do not work until the module is replaced and programmed. The re-programming is a 'dealer only' service. This is a permanent safety failure which has life or death consequences if I am ever involved in an accident. Not corrected as of 03/08/10.
Shortly after bringing car home just at random the drivers seatbelt pops open. At first I thought OH I must not of clicked it . But in year in half I've had car I'd say 5 times its released it self and with not only me but my pregnant sister as well.
