Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)My left front door failed to open using the outside handle. I have tried unsuccessfully to fix the problem by removing the inside door panel, the door window, and the surrounding hardware and electrical components. I contend that this is a safety hazard because a)a rescuer would fail to get the driver out of the vehicle in case of an accident and b)the door could open while driving because the latch contains a defective part. Other Volvo models have been recalled because of this problem, but my Vin number is currently not included in the recall. I contend that it should be recalled for my vehicle.
The rain water leaking through windshield. It could cause rust in the frame, then cause the failure of whole structure. I checked the Volvo forums, seems there are many Volvo owners have similar issues. I owned other cars, it’s the first time I had leaking water through perimeter of windshield.
MY WINDSHIELD STARTED LEAKING ON THE DRIVER SIDE DURING A HEAVY RAIN STORM. WATER WAS DRIPPING IN STREAMS AND IMPEDED VISIBILITY. I HAD IT EVALUATED AND THERE IS A BREAK IN THE FACTORY SEAL. THE WINDSHIELD IS ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENTS OR HAD ANY INJURIES. I SEE THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH OTHER VOLVOS AS WELL.
