problem #1

S40

  • 47,000 miles
After letting the vehicle sit over night...when starting the vehicle in the morning there is no brake pressure after a half mile of driving. This happens everyday and this is a common problem with Volvo. This problem could result in very serious problems and maybe even fatal to other Volvo owners who are not aware of this common problem......I do know that on the Volvo S40 2000 model this was a recall and it should also be on the Volvo S40 2005 model.
