Two problems related to front seat power adjust have been reported for the 1998 Volvo V70. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
While my wife paula was driving on the ne extension of the pennsylvania turnpike, the driver's power seat unit moved forward on its own without warning! she had to pull over to avoid an accident. This cycle repeated itself 3 more times that day! at the time our deaf 9-year old daughter was riding in the back seat. The dealer from which we bought the car (was used) 2 weeks prior found the power seat unit to be defective after we brought it back, and they refused to honor payment of a replacement. In order to have a safe car we had to pay for it ourselves.
The rotors warped in less than 23,000 miles see additional documentation attached from the internet multiple instances reported by others as well.
