Does the V70 have problems on the front axle?

Hello , an acquaintance has told me that the V70 from BJ 2000 often have problems somehow on the front axle. There should break feathers or something like that, or feather legs. Is there something known??? Reperatures should always cost around the 1500 Euro!! What should there, by the way, from about 125,000 km, regularly break down is so expensive? Or does he mean something else on the front axle? Thanks already!
