2004 Volvo XC90 review from North America
"Steer clear"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Where to start?
Gear shift broke.
Replaced brakes 2 times.
Required fan belt replacement 900.00.
Now has wheel drive problems, which will cost 2000.00.
General comments?
This car is a constant money trap. I will NEVER have another Volvo and would strongly advise anyone considering one to really reconsider. There is always something wrong and it's never cheap.
In 1.5 years have spent over 5000.00 dollars -- wish I had bought the new Mountaineer instead of the used Volvo.
