Several things have gone wrong in the 15 months I've owned this car:
The gear shift had to be replaced because it got stuck in gear.
Then a radiator cap had to be replaced.
Then they said that the battery was old (3 months after I bought it).
Then the car wouldn't start and they said that the ignition didn't recognize my car (the immobilizer?)
As we speak, the car is in the shop because the battery is dead, the one that is only a year old (the warning light never came on).
The week before that, the tail lights went out.
The car runs well and is easy to handle when it runs well, but 6 trips to the shop in 15 months is very frustrating.
I purchased a second hand V40 six months ago. 28,000 miles on the clock. It has been back to the dealer garage at least eight times. Currently waiting to go in again. Unsafe to drive as clutch not working and virtually impossible to get into gear. Slave cylinder renewed only five days ago!
