Another broken door strap 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be Dave H. on  Tue May 15 00:08 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Add me to the list of broken door straps. The strap mounting bracket on the driver's door has just about broken free from the door frame on our 96 850. It is not a loose bolt. I guess it will have to be welded- looks like a poor design and metal fatigue. Anybody gotten any goodwill help from Volvo on this repair? Car only has 56K miles. Any tips on getting it repaired properly? Alldata shows a service bulletin on this from 1995. Should the welded area be painted?

Volvo's are not the cars they once were... Wish I did not have 2 of them!

Thanks,

Dave
