3 Steering Column problem of the 1999 Volvo V70

Failure Date: 04/01/2005

From February 2004 to April 2005, I have had various problems with my 1999 Volvo xc70 and have little help from the Volvo dealership in the matter. I twice had to call aaa because I stalled my car at school. Originally, I thought it may be an ignition problem, but after two trips to jim culligan, it was determined to be a steering conmponent problem. Furthermore, as the records at jim culligan will clearly document (and my own), I came back with this same problem and told them so, but they said my vehicle is no longer under warranty. All told, I probably spent close to $1500 on this problem by the manufacture.
