2:10-cv-04407-dmc-mf, against Volvo for this specific issue, I believe this issue is leading to more and more problems over time, my vehicle currently won't start and there are only $75K miles on it, I believe water damage is the root cause for all issues with the vehicle at this time, there should be a recall on all vehicles effected or compensation to keep drivers safe in this specific vehicle.Īt least 5 times I have had the car in the Volvo dealership. Currently the check engine light is on, the passenger seat air bag is deactivated and it is unsafe to sit in the passenger seat as the air bag could malfunction at any time, all due to this flooding and the root cause being the faulty drainage system that runs from the sunroof through the dash out of the bottom of the car. The flooding caused damage to the electrical harness/connections under the driver's/passenger's seat. My car flooded a few months back so badly up to 10 gallons of water was vacuumed out. The sunroof drainage system is faulty and over time leaks water into the floor pan of the car, sometimes enough where flooding occurs. So an explanation would be nice.Ī design flaw caused flooding within the cabin of this vehicle. I can't afford a brand new car and I can't afford to lose my life or my kid's either. I have to get to work and I also have to get my kids from point a to B safely. I have receipts from all of these repairs I've had done and I would appreciate if someone would reach out to me and let me know what can be done.

I see where this ETM issue isn't uncommon in Volvo's and that there was a recall a few years ago. I want to know why I am having so many problems and why my money is going to waste. Something needs to be done about this! I have children and this car is not safe! I was told that this was a safe car and the car fax was clean. It hasn't even been a week since the throttle body was replaced. I am tired of dishing out money and I have receipts to show for it. It has put my life at risk and my kids as well! we were almost killed tonight because our car idled again in the middle of highway 45 and the people who almost ran into us swerved into another lane and missed us literally by mere inches and we caused a collision between two other vehicles. I have paid over 1,000 dollars within the last month on this electronic throttle body issue and I would like for it to be known that this car isn't safe. I have had the throttle body repaired at first and just last week I had it completely replaced. It starts shaking and also won't let me accelerate when I press on the gas and it is so scary for me and my kids. Since March of 2015 my car stops in the middle of the busy highways in houston. This is the 3rd time that my car has completely stopped and gone idle when I have children in my car.
