problem #1

Oct 302013

V50 5-cyl

  • 73,000 miles
Both front wheel bearings had to be replaced after low mileage and just past warranty. Failure of bearings lead to ABS brake system being inoperative until repair concluded. As part of repair, Volvo engineered retaining rings were fitted. This indicates an admission by Volvo of the inadequacy of the original part design.
