Replying to: robr2 (Oct 27, 2006 7:52 am) The mileage on my car is very low (13,000 miles) for the 2 years I have had it and the offset of use comes to less than $3000. This is all I am supposed to pay in case of a replacement (I checked with the attorney general help line). The dealership wants me to pay this + difference in invoice prices of my car and the new car they are giving + taxes + licensing etc... summing up to ~$6000. And because of their polite threats, I don't want to deal with Volvo ever again and don't want to own one. So I figured I should ask for repurchase. It is their threats which are making me angry and annoyed. They claim I use to leave my car in the shop and not come in to pick it up and hence it has amounted to 35 days. This is absolutely untrue and a way for them to push to get a new Volvo by paying $6000 rather than going through arbitration. In addition to the $6000 I will also take a hit in the 3.9% interest rate that I have on the remaining loan. Thanks for your good wishes. I need them.

Replying to: robr2 (Oct 30, 2006 7:27 am) Here is the link to the Washingotn Lemon law brochure. On the second page, see point 3 for the conditions for a lemon. http://www.atg.wa.gov/consumer/Publications/LemonBrochure02_2006.pdf If I am not understanding it right let me know. Thanks

Replying to: volvo_trouble (Oct 30, 2006 8:50 am) You were referring to the days.

Replying to: robr2 (Oct 30, 2006 9:04 am) OR 3. A vehicle has been out-of-service for diagnosis or repair of one or more nonconformities or serious safety defects (whether or not repaired) for a cumulative total of 30* calendar days, with at least 15* of those days occurring during the “warranty period.”

Replying to: volvo_trouble (Oct 30, 2006 9:06 am) I guess I was looking for the word fixed and subconciously skipped repaired. In any case, good luck. |

Replying to: volvo_trouble (Oct 26, 2006 9:09 am) Here I thought I found a super duper fit for my needs in the V50. I've been internet browsing for quite a while now searching for a newish vehicle and, on paper anyways, thought I found my next new car. My last Volvo was a 79 244DL that I drove for 13 years. I assume since your dealer changed the fuel tank twice, they tried filling the tank and didn't try to buffalo you with "Unable to reproduce problem." So, does anyone else here have a similar problem with their V50? |

| Look like defroster stripes to me, and seem perfect to clear out an area to let me see what would otherwise be a blind spot, but I was told they're an antenna. If that's the case, where is this antenna on other vehicles? | |
I have a 05 V50T5 AWD and the low beam headlights drop off after 25ft in front of my car. Nighttime driving is dangerous. I have had it in the shop numerous times and they claim there is nothing wrong. I am going to the NTSB with this and want them to determine if it is safe or not. The dealership says everyone has the same problem with the car driving at night. I have several complaints in with Volvo and they continue to send me back to the dealership. Is there anyone else with this problem and has anyone resolved it?
