Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“All of the problems mentioned have shown up during my 2 year plus ownership of this 1994 Volvo 940. The cruise control operated intermittently and when it does, if the car goves over a bump, it knocks out; antenna failed several months ago, assumed it was the power pack; the 4th gear sometimes kicks out on its own at startup and runs in 3rd, sometimes for days, others/hours; ABS brakes sometimes skip a beat (or it's my heart) when going over little bumps while brake pedal is engaged or on slippery surfaces while brake pedal depressed. …”
