While my car was parked inside my garage there was a sudden "bang". The following morning I discovered while backing out of garage that the driver side coil spring had broken. Had I been driving while this happened it would have resulted in the shredding of the front driver side tire possibly resulting in a severe accident. The reason I own Volvo is principally dye to it's reputation for safety. In fact, Volvo uses the term safety in all it's advertising. This is a grave flaw and I ask NHTSA to investigate weather this is a common flaw in the 2004 Volvo Xc70 and other Volvo's with this coil spring.
