3 separate issues:1. Electrical: power windows and power locks sporadically stop working. This started happening around march of 2011. This happens without warning and does not matter if the car is in motion or not.2. Suspension: after only 33,000 miles of driving in southern california mild weather, several parts of the suspension system are broken, including the struts, control arms, and engine mount.3. Visibility: since purchasing the vehicle, i have experience poor visibility while driving due to the front dash reflecting in the windsheild.

I am 88 years old and depend on this vehicle ( our only vehicle) as my transportation for myself my son and my 15 year old great grand daughter.more times than i care to remember this car has stalled out on route 50, where i was traveling 50 to 55 miles an hour. I live about 1 hour away from ocean city, maryland. Each time is terrifying. Sometimes it only takes a few minutes to restart and then there are times where it has taken over an hour. The latest event was 6/14/2017. I have had this car for a year. This problem only occurs when in motion. There have been a few times when it did not start for a while but it is terrifying when it stalls out on the highway.

By me using me own car i am endangering not only my family but others. Can you please help me.
On december 3, 2005, the car (a volvo v50 2006 with approximately 2000 miles) was being driven in a residential area of washington dc.the car was stopped for a light, and then, upon attempting to move forward, there was no power to the wheels in any gear.the car was towed to the dealer (marten's volvo, bethesda, md).the dealers representative informed the owner later that evening that a linkage between the transmission and the axle of the car had "sheared off" for no apparent reason. The dealer says it has fixed the car, but did not explain how. It is clear that if the incident had occurred in traffic, that there is a high probability that upon the sudden loss of power that the car could have been involved in a serious accident resulting in injury or death.
The car began making howling noises when turning right.the noises were coming from the right front wheel area.the car is an awd model with manual 6 speed transmission.it was taken to the dealer to determine the source of the noise.investigation revealed that the right front hub assembly was failing and required replacement.had this component locked up, steering control would be lost and risk of a crash would escalate.the repair was at my expense ($786).these safety related steering and suspension parts should last longer than 58,000 miles.the car has been serviced in accordance with the owners manual service guide.

The car was purchased new and came equipped with pirelli tires.we found them flat on multiple occasions (at least 5) and had one flat while driving.no crashes thus far.we thought it to be a fault of the tires.no punctures were ever found when taken to be repaired.we put one dunlop on the car thinking that if it stayed properly inflated, then surely the problem would be the pirelli branded tires.the next flat we had (last week) was on the dunlop.inspection revealed no damage that would have caused it to lose air pressure.we suspect the wheels are poorly or improperly made and that this causes the flats.losing pressure in a tire for any reason can cause a crash.we have heard that volvo has an "unofficial recall" on the wheels, but cannot find any information on this.the odi id number : 10437484 has been assigned to a previous complaint on this same vehicle.
