Problems with Mirror Memory V70-XC70 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob on  Sun Jun 23 14:02 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I don't want to beat a dead horse, but I want to get this problem solved.

There is clearly a problem with the mirror memory on 2001 XC's.

I have the problem and have heard the same problem described by others on this board.

I already had a software upgrade recently and it didn't fix it.

1) Has anybody had this problem and had it successfully corrected. If so, how?

2) Does this problem exist in 2002 XC's (i.e. has Volvo fixed it yet)?

This is a *safety* issue! My wife and I have had some frightening moments merging onto highways and realizing the mirrors were out of position.

One may argue that I should check my mirror positons before driving, but:

1) It's often hard to tell the mirrors are out of position until you need them.

2) The mirrors move out of position *for no reason* (i.e. I was driving the car with *my* mirror settings, locked the car with *my* remote, unlocked the car with *my* remote and subsequently found the mirrors out of position without anybody changing the mirrors, selecting a different memory postion or using a different remote.

This is worse that not having mirror memory--at least standard mirrors stay put and don't change on their own.

I paid for mirror postion memory and I expect it to work!
