Hi.

I really enjoyed your story! It was quite entertaining. I was reading it and thought to myself, "owner's literature is available for free at the volvocars.com website". I really have no pity for you. If you had read the owner's manual like you SHOULD'VE before operating your automobile you'd find it stated in clear text that glowing lights indicate alternator failure.

There is another point I'd like to make. When the lights started to glow, you should've been on the alert that a problem occurred. Knowing that glowing lights indicate alternator problems, once you'd returned from your trip you should have made an inspection and at the least and found the loose connector.


Really dude, you're a "car guy" right? Does this mean you are "exempt" from understanding how to operate dangerous machinery? I know that you'll enjoy reading the manual, if you truly appreciate automobiles.
