Volvo V70 Electrical problems by year

In mid summer of 2021, my car overheated randomly without any warning driving down the interstate. I pulled off immediately and cut the car off but, it was already done. The radiator cracked as a result of the engine overheating. I had the car towed to my mechanic and he replaced the radiator. Since then I've been having a lot of check engine codes. It's now May of 2022, my car is still using and going through a lot of coolant. There are no leaks in the coolant. My mechanic recently said that the radiator fan is...

Througout this cars history (from the first year 20 + years ago through to today) the engine randomly cuts out without warning, though this happens when usally while declerating and braking to round a street corner. Once it cuts out, of course power steering and brakes are virtually inoperative. However, by simply putting in neutral and turning the key the care always immediately restarts.

Today I received a warning message that my low beam was out. I stopped in the auto parts store and bought the passenger side low beam replacement bulb. When I went to disassemble it I noticed that the wiring harness was burnt. I'm going to replace the wiring harness but this is very concerning. It's not old and just corroded it is actually burnt.

Complete speedometer cluster does not work. No fuel gauge tachometer temperature or speedometer. I've talked to many other people that had that exact same problem. It cuts in and out randomly but that was in the beginning now it does not work at all. Could be a safety issue not knowing how fast you were going or how much fuel you have. I have ran out of gas a few times while moving since I don't know how much is in there. I keep worrying about getting a ticket since I don't know how fast I'm going

I took my car to the dealer because it was not passing smog and had trouble for several years. So the smog dealer told me to take it to the dealer. I told the dealer that I was trying to pass smog, but the car had been driving very good in spite of the smog problem. They replaced everything that you can imagine at a cost of over 10,000 dollars which both of us spent in a two month period. But after they got it to pass smog I noticed another more serious problem, it would stop running in the middle of traffic. I...

Main engine wiring harness destroyed, engine still ran- temp, fluids, cam timing, mass air flow, fuel rail, throttle position -sensors, instrument panel. Had checked oil two days earlier, was no damage. Wind screen washer light came on when I tried to start engine, checked and found damage -was one of the sensors which was damaged - fluid bottle was ok. Some minor wires were still attached. This could have happened on the highway and caused an engine malfunction. There was always a slight odor in hot weather or...

Car surges randomly at lower speeds. Car also loses power on freeway and acceleration fluctuates uncontrollably at times. All symptoms happening while car is in motion, mostly at speeds over 50mph. I brought the car to my local dealership where there were open recalls on the model I own. After recall was performed, the symptoms have increased and worsened. Dealership is refusing to take any responsibility.

Tl* the contact owns a 2001 volvo v70. The contact stated that the key fob would not function intermittently, the door locks worked intermittently, and the turn signals worked independently. Also, various other electrical systems began experiencing issues. The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was contacted and stated that there were no recalls on the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 135,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 volvo v70. The contact stated that the anti-theft tamper device failed and impacted the radiator. The contact indicated that the manufacturer excluded the vehicle from a service campaign. The contact was unable to determine if the dealer's solution would repair the vehicle. A warning indicator illuminated to service the engine and service loss of power. The vehicle was taken to the dealer (volvo cars cape cod, 270 north st, hyannis, ma 02601, 508-815-5400) for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 90,000.

After investigation, I discovered that used vehicle just purchased (2004 volvo v70) had a bad rem module; rendering fuel gauge, rear door locks, fuel door latch, and hatchback lock inoperative. The rear hatchback has no manual method to lock it; making vehicle unsecurable. Investigation online indicates this is a known issue. Dealer wants around $200 to update software to fix problems. This is unacceptable, since at least two critical items (hatchback and fuel door latches) depend on functioning rem to secure them. I believe these items should be covered by the manufacturer regardless of age.

My driver side seat heater caught on fire today and smoldered a hole through the seat. I was driving in a residential neighborhood in the morning around 9:15am.

Tl* the contact owns a 1999 volvo v70. While driving 65 mph, the vehicle suddenly reduced speed drastically without warning. The contact was able to pull the vehicle over to the side of the road, turned off, and restarted the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact to take the vehicle to the dealer for further inspection, diagnostic testing, and repair. The failure mileage was not available.
