Ladies and gentlemen, I’m driving a Volvo and I don’t just feel comfortable in the car, no, I’m also having fun with and on the vehicle. It doesn’t have to be a matter of course nowadays, but as a multi-driver, I’m also committed to the luxury of my car. Now I’m facing a small, self-made problem with my vehicle and ask for your valuable information. It’s about your advertising for the XC70 on your website (see picture in the appendix), more precisely about the thing that This is how you apply for a product property that hardly anyone uses, but which remains “hanging” in the back of the mind of a Volvo XC driver. This is exactly what I would have offered this summer, but which I did not use. It turned out, because I only heard in a survey among other drivers in the tenor that this would be the safe – albeit slow – death for every car. Now, of course, I’m glad not to be in danger there. or are the expected damage to the body so long that these are no longer guaranteed by VOLVO? Or better yet, the Volvo XCs can withstand this burden without any problems? Please inform me now what is the state of the art: Can I chauffeur my XC through the water on the sea beach in the surf, or should I leave my fingers behind? As a responsible driver, I do not do this for the sake of the environment every day and it remains a (one time?) exception, of course, but is not part of my question and please not your answer. Specifically: Does the XC (or another Volvo) suffer more than by normal use under such a saltwater treatment? Are rust damage not expected earlier than in normal driving mode? Volvo assumes the full warranty in the event of a possible saltwater damage to chassis, Bodywork or any other part of the vehicle? Or do you advise not to follow your advertising example? Best regards Torsten – the XC fan (and here are the answers of my buddies to this question 😉
