Tires were shaky when i bought a brand new c30 volvo.asked dealer to fix-sales manager said nothing was wrong (ft. Meyers, fl volvo). And he would tell volvo i was crazy.tires were destroyed at 10,000.went to different volvo dealer in sarasota and st. Pete-nothing is wrong.dealer replaced tires at 10,000. Car still shaking. Now i am on my 3rd set of tires at 50,000.something is very wrong with this car-do not buy one volvo will not fix.
The windshields on these cars mazda 3 and the ford focus all same platform are known to have a bonding defect when they were built. This should have been a recall for safety.
While driving along the interstate in southern california, at about 70mph, the sunroof of my 2011 volvo c30 spontaneously exploded.there was no previous indication of any faults with the sunroof system and it was closed at the time of the explosion.i was not driving in traffic or in the vicinity of large vehicles that could have kicked up debris.i also had not passed under any overpasses.from my research online, there does not appear to be a recall on any volvo sunroofs.the local volvo dealer in san diego has told me that the repair will not be covered under warranty since they could not determine the cause of the explosion.the out of pocket repair costs are estimated at $980.it does not seem that the local dealer is interested in investigating this incident, but they did point out that they have seen similar explosions on other model volvo before.
Rear tires worn out on the inside after 21000 miles. 1/32 inside and 5/32 outside tread depth. Unacceptable tire wear as front tires have 4 to 5/32 tread depth across the tire. Note that this car is also a front wheel drive vehicle!authorized volvo dealer has aligned vehicle at least 2 times! alignment said to be within spec both times! i have facts supporting this to be common occurrence on volvo c-30 models as witnessed by owners on internet forums. Excessive tire wear by unsuspecting driver can and will lead to unexpected tire blow out causing damage to vehicle and/or injury or death. Similar incidents have happened as pointed out in the ford explorer accidents in the 1990s!

Windshield is not sealed properly- moving as i drive from faulty seal
The windshields on these cars mazda 3 and the ford focus all same platform are known to have a bonding defect when they were built. This should have been a recall for safety.
While driving at about 65 mph in heavy traffic on i-87, the car suddenly lost all power, including all electrical instruments and accessories.it rolled to a stop and could not be started by pushing (the car has a manual transmission).
The car developed a rattle over bumps which got worse with colder weather to the point we determined the windshield is loose almost the entire length across the top and part way down the right side. Our local auto glass company says it seems to be a factory quality control problem. Upon doing some online research it appears to be a somewhat common problem with volvos and it is a problem with the primer applied to the glass possibly being contaminated and separating from the glass and not actually a problem with the adhesive which attaches the windshield to the car. The volvo dealer says i'm out of warranty and i will have to pay to have the windshield removed and reset and that if it breaks during removal a new one will be around $800.00. I think this is a factory defect and safety concern caused by lack of quality control and other people in the auto glass industry have expressed the same thought. Check herehttp://beranek.agrrmag.com/?s=volvo+bond+failurei have never heard of windshields becoming loose on vehicles being a common occurrence. It also seem that it would be considered a safety issue. I will have photos tomorrow if i can access this report to add them.
The loose windshield issue needs to be investigated as it is a very common issue. I have a 2011 c30. You can push up on the glass and it is not adhered on the top at all to the car. Not just on the c30 but other models as well. It's as if the windshield is only adhered to on 3 sides. It vibrates and leaks. Definitely needs to be recalled. And the manufacturer needs to be made aware.
The windshield got loose. When pressing it from the inside, the windshield moves. When the door closes that windshield moves, or with vibrations while driving. Under heavy raining, water leaks inside the cabin. The vehicle was stationary at a parking lot when we realize it was like that. Taking with other owners, it is a known issue, and volvo is aware.
The vehicle is stationary until i can get the issue corrected in the next day or two.the windshield is loose.i discovered a leak and determined that the issue is that the windshield is not attached to the car at the top.the slightest pressure from the inside can move the windshield away from the seal on the car.i have learned that this is a common issue tin volvo's that occurs due to improper glass preparation.how can this be safe?shouldn't volvo be responsible for correcting the issue?thank you
