2003 Volvo XC90 review from North America
"Good except for transmission problem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission started slipping at 79,000 miles. Dealer couldn't find a problem. Now on vacation in another state, and the engine light and service transmission urgent light on.
Different dealer quoted $7,000 + to replace transmission - and national back order for part for 2-3 weeks! They act like this is an uncommon problem.
