I owned a 2000 Volvo s-80 sedan that had a throttle body failure on 08/13/03 while traveling on I-35 in iowa. The engine stalled on the interstate. The car had 53,487 miles on it. I understand that you have had a number of complaints about Volvo throttle body failures and thought you should be informed. I considered the car to dangerous to drive and sold it within a month of the incident.
