  Very Unreliable + Expensive to Maintain - 2001 Volvo S60
  By David - May 16 - 6:46 pm

  This is the worst car Ive ever owned without question of the six total. It has expensive issues constantly popping up and has terrible rattles. I will never ever consider buying another Volvo. I cant wait to get rid of it. What a total disaster it has been. I regret the day I bought it. I dont normally complain about things, but they earned my scorn.

  Overall, a very good car! Purchased car for safety features as well as design and have been satisfied YTD. Took 3 years of ownership before realizing that there is a trunk release above rear license plate when doors are unlocked push up on rubber cover this will open the trunk without using the fob.I have to agree that the car does burn bulbs. Car only has 38000 miles and replaced over 6 bulbs. The dealership I go to is not so generous and charges $4.00 a bulb a bit pricy. Had some problems with plastic runners on roof pitting and discoloring the first year but they were replaced under warranty. Also, experienced some electrical problem that was also covered under warranty.

  Nice car for normal driving. Not enough power in 5 cyl. Dealer service sucks in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn! Parts expansive so get extanded warranty.

  Sweet Ride - 2001 Volvo S60
  By Michael - January 3 - 7:06 pm

  I replaced a 96 maxima that I rode hard for 200k with this car. The Maxima was fast for only 190hp. I wanted something that was fast. I had been looking for an s-60. 1st gear aint much to talk about, throw it in second and with the right RPM, youve got a rocket. The high pressure turbo is different. I squeal the tires after it is in gear and the RPM goes up. The car is one of those classic designs that wont go out of style. (They modeled the new S80 after it.) I only wish I would have sprung for the later edition R60 with 300 HP. Maintenance aint horrible but there are weird squeaks & rattles all over the car. My car has all the options for an 01, trackball 5-speed.
