EXCESSIVE RUST IS FORMING ON MY FRONT SUBFRAME AND IN SOME PLACES HAS RUSTED COMPLETELY THROUGH. SMALL PERFERATIONS WERE NOTICED AT REPAIR FACILITY AND I WAS TOLD THAT IT WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. IT CANNOT BE WELDED/REPAIRED. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE 2007-2010 VOLVO S80 V8 WHICH VOLVO REFUSES TO RECALL AND WILL BE AN EXTREMELY COSTLY REPAIR. IT ALSO MAKES THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE SHOULD THE REPAIR NOT BE MADE.

SEVERE SUBFRAME RUST DUE TO EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE EXHAUST ON THE V8 MODELS OF THE VOLVO S80S ONLY. DEALER SAID THE EXCESSIVE HEAT WILL MELT THE PAINT OFF, CAUSING RUST TO ATTRACT TO THE SUBFRAME. THE SUBFRAME IS A CRITICAL COMPONENT TO THE CAR, UNFORTUNATELY ALTHOUGH VOLVO HAS SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE V8 MODELS, THEY WILL NOT DO ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE MY VEHICLE HAS RUST, AND THE CAR IS UNDERCOATED YEARLY.

THE FRONT SUBFRAME OF MY VEHICLE WAS FOUND TO BE UNSAFE BY THE VOLVO DEALER IN MY AREA. CORROSION HAD GREATLY DETERIORATED PARTS OF THE FRAME WHICH SUPPORTS THE FRONT SUSPENSION, STEERING AND ENGINE. I WAS TOLD THAT REPLACEMENT WAS THE ONLY OPTION TO AVOID A POTENTIALLY CATASTROPHIC FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. CLOSE EXAMINATION REVEALED SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE SUBFRAME. VOLVO SERVICE STAFF TOLD ME THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS MODEL S80 V8.
