Example complaints

“Vehicle started experiencing stalling and when trying to accelerate it would not pick up on speed, I have been quoted by Volvo that the supercharger is bad on a car that is only 6 years old. That repair for this is $2,000 as the engine valve also has to get cleaned out. The vehicle started having issue with AC after 2 years and now the front evaporator has gone bad and with summer Time is when I realized of this defect. $5,000 repair for the evaporator.”
NHTSA complaint #11663618, filed 2025-05“Rear evaporator coil (Failure) The rear evaporator coil failed on my Volvo XC90 purchased new at the dealership in 2019. This car only had 27,000 miles on it when the evaporator coil went bad. Refrigerant smells entered the cabin when AC was on while my 2 year old daughter was in the back. Having refrigerant leaking into the cabin is not great for health, especially that of a toddler. Additionally this could have caused an inability to defrost windows creating a safety hazard. …”
NHTSA complaint #11690299, filed 2025-09“The exterior paint on my 2019 Volvo XC90 has experienced significant premature peeling and delamination on the front bumper and surrounding body panels. This is not the result of collision, misuse, or environmental damage the vehicle has been properly maintained and garaged. The paint failure appears to be a factory defect related to improper adhesion, primer application, or a substandard clear coat process during manufacture. The affected components are available for inspection upon request. …”
NHTSA complaint #11738272, filed 2026-05“Air conditioning failed to function as soon as vehicle lease was up. Less than 45k miles on a 3 year old car. Stopped working, hot air blowing in the middle of summer no less. This does not appear to be a part that is on the maintenance interval list. This does not appear to be an isolated incident when researching this fault now over a year later.The climate control system failing on a new car on a part that cannot be reasonably serviced seems problematic to say the least. …”
NHTSA complaint #11566341, filed 2024-01“Car shut off while driving and rebooted. Was precessed by the infotainment system crashing and then rebooting a minute prior. Car made a sound like a grunting sound right as it shut down.”
