problem #1

Jul 012005

V70

  • Automatic transmission
  • 60,000 miles
Contact states the car has on numerous occasions shut down while driving. It generally restarted but not always. Had to have it towed from time to time. Has been having this problem since the fall of last year. The dealer attempted to diagnose the problem, and felt it needed a new starter. Had a new starter put on and then a new ignition, and that initially solved the problem. But then the problem recurred, vehicle stalled and died on the highway.
