Cover C70 Attention – costs!!!

Good day from Austria! Exciting topic: C70 – BJ 2007, approx. 50 Tsd km on the clock, 3rd summer season – cover defective, strange noise development, is stuck. Diagnosis: hair crack in the hydraulic unit (an obvious material error), further diagnosis: warranty expired, raparature costs approx.2,000,- material, 8 to 10 hours work… My opinion: There is also a product liability! And the information of the parts supplier: Of course, in this case we have to give Volvo the defective Te This information is passed on to Volvo-Cars Austria: Patzige Answer – we accept 50% of the material costs, they have no legal claim to this, if they want to have the defective part to control, they pay full and basic. Conversations with fellow sufferers: Yes, they are always so un-culant, quite unlike other brands (where the same technology is used), where even after years of material defects in the area of hydraulic cover is repaired free of charge. R esumee: Don’t open and close the cover too often!!! You never know when the next 2 to 3,000 euros of repair will be due – so save in time, otherwise is nothing with convertible! VOLVO – quality that you pay. Once, twice… A poverty certificate!
