Volvo S60 Reliability through December 31, 2012
General NotesModels and statistics marked with an asterisk (*) have very low sample sizes. These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.
New models often start out with high repair rates, and then improve as the manufacturer identifies and addresses common problems. MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| May | 2008 | 126000 | 135 | Compressor won't stay on. Cools for 15 minutes then quits. Refrigerant was low, replaced low end valve. Air did blow cooler, but still compressor cut out. |

| Sep | 2008 | 128000 | 57 | Low oil pressure. None registered on stick. Did oil change. Seems to be burning oil. |
| Dec | 2008 | 131000 | 0 | Loose connection in frt suspension caused loud scraping/grinding noise. Sounded like the wheel would fly off any minute. Shop tightened everything up and noise went away. Right headlight and turn signal are intermittent. May be on when leaving house, off when arriving at work. Turn signal also goes on and off, but not at the same times as headlight. Can't find loose connection. Warped rotors causing loud noise when driving, especially at slow speeds. Too expensive to change out right now. Pads are ok. |
| Mar | 2009 | 138000 | 0 | Check engine light. Code was for low turbo boost. Not repaired ($$$). Also burning oil. Light comes on when you are already 3-4 qts low. Added 2 qts last mo, 3 qts this month. No puddle. Shop ordered valve seals, assumes leak.??? Car pulls sharply right. Went for alignment 3 times, but computer shows not out of alignment. Seems to be steering or suspension. Going through tires fast. Shop had no solution. Got rotors turned to make sure no dragging, but didn't help. |
| Jun | 2009 | 139000 | 10 | Warning: coolant low, stop safely ASAP. This has happened a few times. Added coolant, but can't tell where I'm losing it. Also burning a lot of oil, so adding several qt between changes. |
