are you as disappointed in your c70 as i am? C70

posted by  someone claiming to be jfedems on  Fri Aug 23 05:28 CST 2002 [RELATED]

i am getting more and more disheartened the longer i own my c70...yesterday, i took it in for service and the abs control unit had to be replaced....

since i've owned it the last 2.5 years, it seems one thing after another has failed.....the first 2-3 weeks i had it, it was in shop was a bad o2 sensor - that took a week to get part and it was in shop for the duration........

i've had numerous steering problems with groaning on turns - parts lubed, tightened, finally replaced....happened again.....

several light sockets and fuses blowing all over the place......lots of other stuff.........i feel like i'm at the dealer way too often....i have a year and a half left to my warranty...i wonder if it's worth keeping the car after that....

any thoughts? i thought a volvo would last forever.....admittedly, i have never had to tow it and have been able to drive it in each time for service...i am not happy. i wonder what the long term costs will be...some parts/problems have been replaced/serviced several times already...

all thoughts appreciated....thanks.......j.
