problem #1

Feb 012007

S40

  • 3,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Volvo S40. The contact stated that her vehicle feels as if it were downshifting; however, it has an automatic transmission. When she begins to accelerate, the reduced engine performance light illuminates when the downshifting occurs. The dealer replaced the accelerator pedal and cleaned the computer after the first failure. After the second failure, they replaced the computer. The failures still persist and the contact is scheduled to take the vehicle to the dealer next week. The speed was unknown. The failure mileage was 3,000.
