2015 Volvo XC60

My vehicle is having an oil consumption issue. I recently purchased a vehicle and the document stated that it was a oil change completed. Called the dealership to verify that a oil change Was indeed completed. Oil light came on stating that there was no or low oil. Arrive to oil change location and there was no oil reported in vehicle. Oil change completed, and 1600 miles later I have no oil in my vehicle again. I noticed the engine running a little harder than normal, and the car is extremely difficult catching acceleration. I contacted Volvo Cars LLC, and they suggested I bring my vehicle to a dealership to have it evaluated at a cost.

I WAS DRIVING AND MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN LEAVING ME STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS. IT APPEARED AS IF SOMEONE COMPLETED UNPLUGGED MY CAR FROM THE POWER OUTLET. COMPLETELY BLACK SCREEN ON ALL ELECTRONICS AND IF THE DOOR OPENED NO LIGHTS CAME ON. I HAVE THE VEHICLE AT THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT THEIR MIGHT BE A CORRUPT FILE AND A SOFTWARE UPDATE IS REQUIRED. I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN TO ANYONE ELSE. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. ALSO, THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO GO IN NEUTRAL.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO DEALER MANY TIMES OVER TWO YEARS FOR INTERMITTENT FAILURE OF THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIS. WILL FAIL TO INDICATE VEHICLE IN BLINDSPOT IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. ESCALATED TO VOLVO, THEIR MECHANIC SAYS WORKING AS DESIGNED, REGARDLESS OF FAILURES. WILL ESCALATE HIGHER LEVEL. DRIVERS SIDE BLIS WORKS WITHOUT FAILURE. VOLVO SAYS TRAVELING EAST/WEST IS PROBLEM, DESPITE BEING TOLD FAILURE OCCURS WHILE TRAVELING NORTH/SOUTH.

PASSENGER SIDE BLIS WORKS INTERMITTENTLY, DRIVERS SIDE WORKS FLAWLESSLY. RETURNED TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES, UNABLE TO EFFECT REPAIR. HAVE APPEALED TO VOLVO, WAITING COMMUNICATION. DEALER STATES I SHOULD NOT EXPECT THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIS TO WORK THE SAME AS THE DRIVERS SIDE. I SHOULD BE MORE AWARE, AND NOT EXPECT THE PASSENGER SIDE BLIS TO WORK CONSISTENTLY, THAT WOULD BE UNREASONABLE.

IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BUYING A VOLVO, PLEASE CONSIDER OTHERWISE. I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING A 2015 XC60 T6 AND HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE CITY SAFETY FEATURE ON THE CAR. PLEASE READ THE ATTACHED LETTER SENT TO VOLVO DIRECTLY AFTER GETTING NO RESOLUTION THROUGH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. THE 'OFFER' WE RECEIVED FROM VOLVO ADDED $50 TO MY PER MONTH PAYMENT AND PUT ME INTO ANOTHER 5-YEAR LOAN, AS IF WE WERE JUST ANOTHER CUSTOMER COMING IN TO TRADE IN A CAR. THE EXPERIENCE, OR LACK THEREOF, WITH BOTH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND VOLVO DIRECTLY IS INCREDIBLY DISCONCERTING. AS A RESULT, WE WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER VOLVO. *TR
