Hello, I own a 2002 Volvo Xc70 wagon and am in the process of having my transmission replaced. My coolant constantly needs to be filled and I have no floor heat in my car in the winter and my a/c doesn't work correctly in my car.
Recently bought a 2002 Volvo v70 Xc70 and am having serious issues with gears in the automatic transmission not shifting smoothly and maintaining constant gears at constant speeds. Have been informed that the car may need a transmission replacement. I have seen numerous complaints about this on the web from other 2002 owners. Why has a recall not been issued for this? why should we have to flip the bill for crummy manufacturing?.
There were transmission, acceleration, deceleration and drastic lurching problems that had been occurring for the past 14 months. The lurching problem was not duplicated. The problem would occur in parking lots when the consumer foot was removed from the brake and prior to touching the accelerator. The stick shift would lock as well. There was a re-occurring squeak in the steering.
