When I purchased the vehicle, I had told sacramento nello Volvo that there was a issue with the handling of the car. I did not look at the rotors when I purchased the vehicle. I have been out of the country five times since the purchase of the car so, I have bearly driven the vehicle. I was fortunate that I was driving at a low speed when I used the brakes in a hard stop and they failed to prevent a collision. I was driving on a city street driving North towards travis afb.

Vehicle was purchased from West county Volvo in St. Louis, Missouri as a new car (first sale) on July 11, 2015. At the time of sale it was disclosed that the vehicle was used a dealer demonstration model with 7,327 miles on the vehicle and the vehicle had not been previously sold. It was disclosed that the dealer had "swapped" wheel sets with a newer 2016 XC60 that had just arrived on the dealers lot. After accepting delivery and driving the vehicle approximately 30 highway miles towards Kansas City, the TPMS malfunction indicator illuminated. The dealer was contacted, and declined to re-inspect the vehicle because its service department had already closed. After arriving in Kansas City, it was determined by the dealership and Volvo cars North America that the TPMS sensors installed on the 2016 model year wheels are not compatible with the TPMS monitoring system installed in 2015.5 model year XC60's. accordingly, due to the dealer modification of the vehicle, the vehicle was sold in a first retail sale without a functioning TPMS monitoring system. The dealer may have failed to exercise reasonable care by modifying the vehicle prior to sale without making a determination whether the safety systems were compatible. As of July 15, 2015, the dealer has been unable to rectify the defect.
