2007 Volvo XC70 4dr Wagon
turbocharged 208hp 2.5L I5 5-speed shiftable automatic AWD
| 80600 mi C $1000 |
Replaced alternator -- easy job but alternator cost$800. |
| 89000 mi US $1400 |
Central electronic module (CEM) failure. I could still drive the car, but the level of power steering assist was lower, the odometer stopped working, and the mileage-based functions (MPG, miles to empty, etc.) stopped working. |
| 101000 mi US $200 |
Turn signal switch would work only intermittently, which was a safety issue with lane changes and turns. Ordered new Volvo turn signal stalk. |
| 109000 mi US $300 |
Passenger-side HID bulb needed replacement. Labor included removal of front bumper cover (!). |
| 32000 mi US $350 |
Steering clock spring replacement. Under warranty. |
| 144000 mi US $200 |
Starter replacement |
| 41000 mi | Passenger window kept automatically opening itself when the button was pulled up and released to close it. Fixed by pulling fuse out, putting it back, and holding the window button up until the window closed. This did not take an hour. |
| 79000 mi | Starter motor was found to be weak and was replaced. Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensor was replaced because it posted a code declaring itself faulty. |
| 37280 mi C $55 |
High pressure headlight washer motor failed. Replaced with new motor, $55, one hour. |
| 38100 mi C $440 |
No heat to floor, blend door not operating. Replace seat heater module and update ACC softwrae. |
| 62000 mi C $80 |
Alternator had been getting noisier for the last year. Finally removed it, had an auto electric shop replace both bearings, total cost $80 incl parts labour and tax |

Problem indicated w charging system by software. Checked charging system, battery and alternator. All system elements passed test. |
| 173000 mi US $1630 |
low beam headlight went out. Replacement bulb didn't fix it -- that fact, and the fact that the 12v charging outlets on the dash and between the seats kept blowing out fuses, suggested that it was either a wiring fault, or the central electronic module (CEM). Wiring was fine, so replaced CEM and downloaded new software for it. Now headlights and charging outlets work. |
| 68000 mi | Park assist sensor needed replacing. |
| 50200 mi US $3 |
Replaced burned out tail lamp, 5W. Took one hour to research how to get to bulb. |
