Issues:
Temp gauge doesn't work
Aftermarket stereo doesn't power up
Wiper blades are trash
Interior needs a cheep detail
Exterior needs pressure washed
Door seals are toast
It's an auto tragic :/


Then it drove just fine for 3 or 4 days but decided to quit on me in a parking lot: after an hour or two of poking and prodding I resorted back to bugging a buddy that used to work as a tech at Volvo for some help. Via the phone he diagnosed it as a relay, so I walked the 7-8 blocks to parts store for the $20 relay
