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.

| 2008 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
reported to be superior, back with an excellent warranty |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
still practical |
| 2005 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD |
Have owned for 4.5 years. Wife and I purchased based on experiences of 2 family members who had good experiences. We have been stranded once (in driveway) due to faulty shift lock mechanism, otherwise have put 151,000 essentially pain-free KM on this. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 247hp 2.3L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
So far no unscheduled mantianance required. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 168-horsepower 2.4L I5 5-speed automatic FWD |
The non-turbocharged engine in this car will last forever, with the right maintenance and upkeep. The car only needs to see the dealership once every 7,500 miles, which is nice, and services are not overly expensive. |

| 2004 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 300hp 2.5L I5 6-speed manual AWD |
Volvo is not willing to take responsibility for the AWD system braking on the R. Many reported issues costing the customer over $2000 to repair. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan turbocharged 197hp 2.4L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic FWD |
Lots of little problems such as the front tires rubbing the inner fender wall when having the steering wheel cranked all the way left or right. Also, began to hear a noticeable valve ticking at 60k miles. |
