Defective XC40 Recharge
Have owned a Volvo XC40 Recharge since August 2023.
For all bar three months I have been reporting issues, mainly to do with a clunking or popping sound when accelerating or decelerating under 50km/h. Despite them saying they fixed it several months ago it is still there. Have now been told it needs a full Drive Shaft replacement.
As well, have not had reversing warning beeps for 5 months. Despite them saying they had fixed it last week. Now have a warning of an "Exterior Sound System Malfunction - Service Required" - it was serviced "supposedly" two days ago.
When I received the vehicle, I was told I would be contacted by Volvo Australia to arrange a first year health check, and also for a 2 year service. On both occasions I had to chase this up without prompting from Volvo.
You would be better off buying a Geely at 25k than a Volvo at 87k - they are one and the same as the ownership suggests.
