The light came on this past Monday evening. The car was not shifting correctly in auto or manual, but I made it home (85,000 mi). Thank goodness I found this website before I called the dealer. Brought the car in on Tues. They recommended just a fluid flush because it was low and dirty. I asked them if that was going to fix the slipping and they said it might. I told them to go ahead with it thinking that it might buy me a little bit of time to figure out how to get a new transmission paid for. While I was waiting I went up to the counter to discuss new transmissions. They told me they would replace it with a brand new one, same kind, with a warranty of 12 months. A total cost of $6700.00 plus tax, includes radiator,cooling lines, trans cooler. I asked them if the dealer or Volvo was going to cover any or all of the costs--they said this is what they do--I pay the full amount and then they send all the paperwork to Volvo. They said Volvo is usually pretty good about it. I know I may have only a few days or a few months before the transmission goes, but I don't think I want to pay all that money up front and then wait and see. I would appreciate any comments, suggestions, advice,....thanks

I have 62k and tonight on my way home from a 14 hour shift in the ER, the infamous transmission light went on. I am so angry about this especially after reading and realizing this is a common problem. I like the one guys idea of threatening to write the attorney general. I would like the files too. I am taking it in tomorrow and am bringing notes. This is a joke when you consider how much these vehicles cost. Lynne |
