2000 Volvo S80 review from North America
"Comfortable ride, but too expensive to maintain"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front end warrany problems during first year.
Sun Roof warranty problems (several trips to dealer)
Brake Vacuum Booster replaced at 67,000 for $900 (reason: "bad luck")
Electronic Throttle Module replaced at 67,000 for $800 (reason: "bad luck")
General comments?
Great car to drive, but too many trips to the dealer, both warranty and expensive out of warranty items attributed to "bad luck" per the service advisor.
Never got used to the blind spots.
