THE INSIDE DOOR HANDLES ON MY VEHICLE BROKE. I WAS ABLE TO GET A NEW HANDLE ASSEMBLY FOR THE PASSENGER SIDE, BUT THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO PROVIDE A NEW HANDLE ASSEMBLY FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. THE DOOR CANNOT BE OPENED FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE. I'VE WAITED TWO MONTHS, BUT APPARENTLY THE NEW PART IS NOT AVAILABLE. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO GARDEN STATE VOLVO IN WALL, NJ IN MARCH FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. THE MECHANIC "FIXED" THE INSIDE CABLE WITH DUCT TAPE AND CHARGED US $175 FOR THE REPAIR. WITHIN A WEEK THE DOOR WAS BROKEN AGAIN. I CALLED GARDEN STATE VOLVO AND ASKED FOR THE PART TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM TO BE ORDERED. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE PART IS BACK-ORDERED AND IS COMING FROM SWEDEN. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT THE DRIVER CAN NOT GET OUT. *TR

THE GRIEF FROM THIS CAR LITERALLY BEGAN ON THE WAY HOME FROM THE SHOW ROOM, AS THE SEAT BELTS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. THEY REQUIRED FOUR VISITS TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE OF THE TIRES BEING UNSAFE BECAME APPARENT WHEN THE CAR WAS TWO WEEKS OLD, WITH UNDER 1000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER FRONT & REAR BUMPERS SEPARATE FROM VEHICLE , WITH LITTLE OR NO PROVOCATION. TIRES SELF DESTRUCT AT SPEEDS OF 2-4 MPH (WHILE PARKING), IF A CURB IS TOUCHED. I'M INFORMED THAT TIRES HAVE WEAK SIDEWALLS & TO REPLACE TIRES (AT MY EXPENSE). AIR CONDITIONING REQUIRED THREE VISITS TO REPAIR SHOP & IS STILL NOT GETTING THE CAR AS COLD AS IT SHOULD IN HOT WEATHER. I SHOULD ADD THAT I'M ALSO INFORMED THAT REPLACEMENT TIRES WILL DIMINISH THE HANDLING OF THE CAR.
