2000 Volvo V40 review from North America

Quite a few things have gone wrong with this car, and they started at around 5,000 miles. The car stalled for no reason from 1,000 miles until it hit 10,000 miles. The computerized locks had a chip malfunction and locked my two year old in the car in 20 degree weather, the locks were up, but the doors would not open. I had to have the police and a locksmith get her out. I have been through seven headlights, as they just burn out. I travel around with two spares in the glove box, and have learned how to replace them. The seat belt just came unscrewed and fell out on the drivers side, that was at 17,000 miles, The rear luggage shield is almost unusable, as the spring keeps breaking. And that is with very little usage. At 17,000 miles the rotors seized up in the rear and burned out the brake pads. This has all occurred before the car hit 18,000 miles. The leather on the seats started peeling within three months, no leather conditioners or maintenance has helped.
