I WAS T-BONED BY ANOTHER SUV IN THE DRIVER'S DOOR, DAMAGING FRONT & REAR DOORS, FRONT PANEL AND BACK PANEL. MY CAR WAS STOPPED GETTING READY TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE OTHER VEHICLE STOMPED THE GAS TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND HIT ME DIRECTLY. DOOR WOULD NOT CLOSE AFTER IMPACT AND ALL OF THESE PARTS REPLACED. AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED AND INSURANCE ADJUSTER INDICATED THAT THIS MODEL VOLVO DOES NOT HAVE SIDE AIRBAGS. PLEASE ADVISE..

How to use these: a complaint is one owner’s report, filed voluntarily and published unverified. Patterns matter more than any single story. If several owners describe the same failure at similar mileage, put that system at the top of your pre-purchase inspection list.
