We love this car, but one day the front end was sagging in the garage, and we had to have it towed to the repair shop. The right front spring was broken, and we had both front springs replaced. 18 months later the dealer doing a routine service informed us that a rear spring was broken, and we had both springs replaced. I've had electrical problems with other Volvos (bad switches, bad fuel pump), but this is the worst problem I've ever had with faulty parts.
