1998 Volvo - (V70 and others) ABS/trac control module fails with 64,000 miles on car. Symptoms are intermittent warning lights. Well documented problem according to dealer and other owners (see www.brickboard.com) repair is nearly $700. Major safety issue since ABS and trac do not work when lights are on and module fails.

ABS warning light comes on intermittently. Then goes off after a cycling of the engine. Seems to be a very common problem with this model and because the ABS system is not working when the light is on, it is dangerous. Volvo does not seem to be paying much attention to this problem despite a high number of complaints. Becaue there is no one date for this problem I will arbitrarily put one in for reporting purposes
