tons of service problems, is in the shop almost every two weeks.
Advice to buyer:
DO NOT buy this car. Every Volvo from 2000 until the present sucks.
Detailed review:
This car drives great when it is not being serviced at the dealership. It's been in the dealership hundreds of time since it was bought for every kind of weird problem you can imagine. Once, a wheel bearing fell off while the car was turning onto a major highway. Volvo is definitely not what it used to be. It's high-priced and low-quality.
