problem #1

Aug 202005

S60 5-cyl

  • Manual transmission
  • 500 miles
I own a 2005 Volvo S60R with adjustable suspension. The car exhibits significant "side-step" problem which is a potential safety hazard while driving through dip or potholes. Often the rear end of the car would sway dramatically when driving on the highway at speed of 40 to 70 mph. One time I drove through a freeway that is not well paved and my car's rear-end would skips to another lane! if there is another car next to me I'd definitely hit it.
