For the last 18 months, when getting on or while driving on the interstate at speeds of 55 - 70 mph, the steering wheel vibrates and a vibration is felt throughout the vehicle. When braking a pulsation is felt in the brake pedal and the car shudders as it slows. I have taken it to the dealer and they cannot duplicate the issue. I've seen that other Volvo XC-60 have had similar issues with brakes/rotors.

Since purchasing in May 2019, my brake pads were replaced once and my rotors now three times. I have less than 20,000mi on my Volvo. The reason is because of pulsations when I apply the brakes and it can be felt in the steering wheel, at times. My dealer has been stellar in addressing my concerns each time I have had to have it serviced. I have seen on various blogs and consumer sites that this is a rather common occurrence. I believe the rotors either are not equipped for this vehicle or the quality of the rotors are subpar. If a remedy or recall is not substantiated, the owners should be assured brakes and rotors will be covered by Volvo, indefinitely.

Safety issue the auto-hold brake function malfunctioned. I am using this feature a lot. When entering a paid parking garage the car stopped correctly before the gate. But when opening the door and unbuckling the driver's belt the system malfunctioned- instead of entering auto parking mode and be stopped if moved forward fast, breaking the parking gate completely, damaging city's property, breaking my mirror and getting dents on the hood, driver's door and B-pillar trim panel. Also my left ankle had a big bruise and lump after that, but luckily was not broken. This case was reported to police. The vehicle was stopped. Parking garage entrance
