While driving on smooth surface- heard a sudden loud sound as if something large dropped on the road. Car continued to drive normally except with a loud clunky sounds heard over bumps. Less than 5-miles later, when I pulled over to the garage- I recovered a piece of the spring coil which dropped: the driver side coil spring had broken/failed instantaneously. This uncommon problem appears to be common with Xc70 owners- and could result in potentially serious accidents.

The car pulls to the right. Alignment was checked and was slightly off. It was corrected but the car still pulls to the right. I drove one other Xc70 that was a loaner car from the dealer and it drove the same.
