C70

  • 50,000 miles
This car is a convertible. When the top is down and I hit a bump, the driver door pops open, door ajar message appears, and dome lights come on. Like the previous driver complaint, I am forced to pull over to re-close the door. I reported this to the dealer back in 2012. We looked to see if there were any active recalls. None then and none currently. Since then, the door pops open 50% of the time when the top is down. The car has never had structural damage to it. The local auto body shop recommended I post to this site. I agree with the previous post: "there are many examples of similar problems on the Volvo forums" suggesting a systemic issue. volvoforums.com/forum/Volvo-C70-14/C70-door-unlocks-opens-itself-while-driving-83545/ volvoforums.com/forum/Volvo-XC90-9/door-opens-while-driving-twice-66826/
