Equipment problem #1

Sunroof exploded while driving down the interstate in an open rural area without any sort of outside force.

Equipment problem #2

The chrome trim on our console has peeled back very slightly and has a very sharp edge it has cut our hands multiple times and has took out chunks of our skin it is very painful and unnessary we have had the car brand new a dealer demo since December 2013 we are very unhappy because we have been loyal Volvo customers since 2005 we hope Volvo will recall these vehicles and fix them appropriately because Volvos are not cheap cars and we love are car execpt the fact our hands are getting severely cut.

Equipment problem #3

The chrome foil decoration on the steering wheel trim is delaminating, causing a sharp edge where the foil has pulled away from the plastic substrate. This is happening at the outside edge of the steering wheel, where the hands come in contact with it. In the course of driving the car and turning the wheel, the sharp edge has cut my hands and those of my wife on several occasions. The dealer says that this is a chronic problem and that the manufacturer is unable to keep up with the demand to replace the defective part. The part is on back order and our vehicle is still not repaired.
