2003 Volvo XC90 AWD review from North America
"Undependable and extremely overpriced"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner doesn't blow through vents after car heats up.
Noises in undercarriage.
Molding is peeling off.
Door handles broken on outside.
Power steering makes noise without fluid loss.
Transmission went out at 71000 miles.
General comments?
The car is nice, but the interior is small.
Trim appears nice, but on closer inspection is very cheaply installed.
