Twice following automatic car washes I had random electrical problems. Took it to independent volvo garage. It took hours of troubleshooting (that cost over $500) and follow-up car washes to confirm that a $13 protective panel under the hood was missing and allowing water to short connections in the main computer. Inexpensive panel replaced; the major cost was for labor to troubleshoot the leak, which included removing front passenger seat, under dash components, under hood components, etc. |
