2007 Volvo XC90 Complaints

THE ISSUE FIRST STARTED ON MA 3RD, 2019. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ON MY WAY TO THE BEACH. THE ROAD WAS A LITTLE BUMPY AND THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY CAR LOST ALL POWER AND SHUT ITSELF OFF. IT THROUGH 3 CODES, 1. IMMOBILIZER, 2. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE AND 3. CLIMATE CONTROL MODULE. I WAS ABLE TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME. MY HUSBAND DECIDED TO RESEARCH WHAT COULD CAUSE THESE ISSUES. HE LOCATED A YOUTUBE VIDEO THAT WAS POSTED 2 YEARS AGO REGARDING THE ECM & CCM FUSES. THE MAN RECORDING THE VIDEO EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEMS, AND FOUND THAT THE FUSE FOR THE TWO ITEMS HAVE BLOWN. MY HUSBAND THOUGHT MAYBE THAT MIGHT BE THE ISSUE. HE LOCATED THE FUSES AND FOUND THAT BOTH OF THEM WERE IN FACT BLOWN. HE REPLACED THEM BOTH WITH BRAND NEW FUZES AND THE CAR STARTED RIGHT NOW.. THE NEXT DAY, I DROVE TO WORK WITH NO ISSUES AND TO AND FROM LUNCH. ON MY WAY HOME, ABOUT 3 MILES FROM WORK, I WENT DOWN A SIDE STREET AS THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT AND TRAFFIC WAS BACKED UP.

ON OR ABOUT FEBRUARY 06, 2019, OUR 2007 VOLVO XC-90 EXPERIENCED A STEERING LOCK FAILURE. THAT IS THE LOCK COULD NOT ADVANCE TO THE START POSITION AND CONSEQUENTLY LOCKED THE KEY IN THE IGNITION SWITCH. THE LOCK WOULD NOT ADVANCE. CONSEQUENTLY PERFORMED THE FOLLOWING: A) CONSULTED VOLVO OWNER'S MANUAL. THE MANUAL WAS SILENT ON THIS. SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED NOSE FIRST IN OUR GARAGE, AGAIN CONSULTED THE VOLVO OWNER'S MANUAL TO FIND OUT HOW TO MANUALLY GET THE VOLVO OUT OF PARK. VOLVO'S MANUAL WAS SILENT ON THIS. B)CONTACTED NORTH TOWN VOLVO DEALER FOR ADVICE. RESPONSE WAS TO GET THE VEHICLE IN BY TOWING. NO ADVICE AS TO HOW TO DISENGAGE THE VOLVO'S PARK FEATURE. C)CONTACTED VOLVO'S ON LINE CHAT SERVICE AND RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE. NO HELP! GET THE CAR TOWED IN! D)CONTACTED IN COLLISION AND AUTO REPAIR. THEY SUGGESTED A 2006 YOU TUBE VIDEO SHOWING HOW TO DISENGAGE THE PARK FUNCTION. THIS WORKED AND THE VOLVO 2007 XC-90 WAS TOWED TO IN COLLISION AND AUTO REPAIR....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 VOLVO XC90. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE AND TIMING CONTROL MODULE FAILED. THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE SENT A SIGNAL TO THE TIMING CONTROL MODULE, WHICH CAUSED AN ENGINE SEIZURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07V563000 (VISIBILITY). THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 197,000.

THE YELLOW ABS BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. THE RED PARKING BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR HAD A LOUD LONG BEEP NOISE ACTIVATED. FINALLY, THE "REGAN BAKES DISABLED" READING WAS DISPLAYED!!! ALSO HEARD THE BRAKE PADS (4 WHEEL DISK BRAKES) SOUNDED LIKE THEY WERE SCRATCHING ON THE ROTORS. ALL INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET/NHTSA VEHICLE RECALL WEBSITE SAYS THIS IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH FORD MOTOR COMPANY. BUT, FORD IS NOT WILLING TO RECALL THE VEHICLES BECAUSE IT REQUIRES A $5,300 HCU REPLACEMENT PART. MY SON NEEDS TO DRIVE VEHICLE FOR HIS JOB (UBER/LYFT). HELP!!? SAFETY ISSUE! FORD MOTOR COMPANY OR THE NHTSA CAN CONTACT ME AT ANY TIME TO HELP ME WITH FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PROCEED.
