1999 Volvo S80 Visibility (wipers, defrost, mirrors) Problems

“The front, passenger window actuator broke approximately 1 month ago. I just found out that the front, driver side actuator is now broken. Neither of these windows received excessive use or abuse. It is not acceptable for them to just break with normal usage.”

“The contact owns a 1999 Volvo S80. When the contact attempted to lower the passenger side window, it suddenly stopped functioning. She pushed the button to raise the window and the glass fell off track, which resulted in the window resting at a slight right angle. The current and failure mileages were 118,000.”

“Power windows would act sporadically, going up or down whenever the button is used. Some time would partially go up or down their its own. Taken vehicle to dealership twice. The 2nd time the mechanic got inside of vehicle & closed door, air bags deployed. Had no indication of why. Dealership having Volvo representative to check vehicle.”

“While driving 55-60 MPH, brakes were pulsating, after applying brakes again noticed brakes were fading. Consumer pulled over and noticed rotors were red hot. Dealer replaced front rotors and pads. The gas tank had a defect that would cause a vacuum leak. The front suspension makes a cracking noise when turning due to ball joint failure. The gear shifter switch makes loud clicking noise. The rear passenger door handle could not be opened from outside. Automatic transmission had slippage and shudder while up shifting, creating a vehicle loss of control. …”
