Volvo V60

BCM Trouble Codes: C000101, C000201, and C008248 Incident & Defect Summary: The Brake Control Module (BCM) experienced a premature internal electrical circuit failure at only 55,188 total vehicle miles. This vehicle was purchased directly from an authorized Volvo retail showroom (Volvo Cars Marin) in 2020 at 36,434 miles, meaning this primary active safety infrastructure failed after just 18,754 miles of personal ownership (averaging roughly 3,125 miles per year under meticulous maintenance).…

The electronic tailgate struts/motors have failed for the 3rd time in the cars lifetime. The risk this presents is sudden dropping of the tailgate on heads, fingers or anything in between the ground and the lifted tailgate. The dealer has given a quote for replacement but will not give a quote on the diagnosis instead, simply telling me over the phone the struts need replaced and sending me a $1381.34 invoice via email. I have been working to get it in for diagnosis since August 21 with no…

I took my car in for the 90,000 mile general service at the Volvo dealership. While rotating my tires the tech providing the service noted that the front left suspension fork was broken. The tech and Volvo were unable to provide an explanation for how the damage could have occurred. There was no other notable damage. The tire pressure light was on but that is baseline for my car (the tire pressure gauge is sensitive and usually turns on as soon as I adjust the tire pressure). I provided a…

I am reporting an ongoing and worsening defect condition involving a Volvo vehicle that has displayed repeated power steering / steering failure warnings and is now also showing additional symptoms consistent with a possible turbo / emissions-related failure. The steering-related warnings have remained active and unresolved over an extended period. The vehicle has displayed dashboard warnings for “Power steering” and “Power steering failure,” and the condition has not been reliably corrected…

OTA update is never available on stated timelines. Requires going to the dealership to get updates.

Hello, I currently drive a 2016 Volvo V60 Cross Country which falls under the year of recalled vehicles related to the piston ring issue outlined in the Buchanan, et al. v. Volvo Car USA, LLC, et al., Case No. 2:22-cv-02227. According to the suit Volvo is supposed to replace my oil piston rings if it falls under warranty which is under 100k miles. For Volvo to confirm if my vehicle was impacted they performed an oil consumption test back in March of 2023 in which my vehicle failed meaning the…

The engine consumes an excessive amount of oil, requiring the addition of about one quart every few hundred miles. There are no visible external leaks, and the issue appears to be due to internal engine components such as piston rings allowing oil into the combustion chamber. This poses a risk of engine damage and loss of power. The problem has been observed consistently and confirmed by a repair shop. No crash or safety incident has occurred, but the vehicle's reliability and safety are…

Currently on going, second time around with high oil consumption problems. Dealer is saying warranty is holding up repairs, warranty points finger at dealership, and Volvo refuses to address the massive safety problem with oil consumption cars by refusing to fix. I will never buy another Volvo, and strongly recommend anyone considering a Volvo to think about how they’re treating current customers with the known oil consumption problem (horribly).

Engine oil consumption issue. It was a known issue. Completed the recommended repair of the piston and rings. Have had constant issues since the repair. Looking for reimbursement for the repair. My engine fell under the guidelines to have the repair covered.

Vehicle: 2023 Volvo V60 T8. The rear camera does not display video while reversing and instead text appears stating camera is temporarily unavailable. This occurs periodically, sometimes it works, sometimes its does not, and there is no pattern to when it works. This has been occurring for over a year and recently my car received the 3.7.0 software update OTA. After the update the issue is the same with intermittent failures of the backup camera. This software/hardware failure make the car…
