Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The steering wheel shakes when the brakes are applied. No dealer has resolved the problem. A caster reading, by an independent shop show that if one sstrut were shorter, the shaking would stop. The casters are off, the car always needs aligned, and the tires wear unevenly. I'll be spending the $2,000 to fix it, but the problem is a manufacturing one. Volvo denies any responsability for 1994 models, now that they are owned by ford.”
