Volvo C70 problems
The Volvo C70 is a two-door, four-passenger sports GT manufactured and marketed by Volvo Cars from 1996 to 2013 across two generations.
The first generation (1996–2005) was available as both a coupé (1996–2002) and softtop convertible (1997–2005). The second generation (2006–2013) was available as a retractable hardtop convertible.
First generation (1996–2005)
Volvo debuted the first generation C70 at the 1996 Paris Motor Show, and introduced it in Europe as a 1997 model, and a year later as a 1998 model in North America — with 2.0 (sold mostly in Italy), a low-pressure turbo (2.4L) and a high-pressure turbo (2.0L and 2.3L), 5-cylinder, turbocharged petrol engines and manual and automatic transmissions. Ian Callum designed the exterior and Mexican designer Jose Diaz de la Vega led the interior design team.
The C70 broke Volvo's decades-long styling tradition of boxy, rectilinear designs and was Volvo's first luxury coupe since the 780. According to a tongue-in-check remark made by Peter Horbury, Volvo's design chief from 1991 to 2002, with the C70, Volvo "kept the toy, and threw away the box!" "Our vision was to design a convertible that would meet the needs of a family of four looking for comfortable blue-sky motoring in a vehicle also providing stylish looks, performance and faultless driving and road-holding."
In a development program of 30 months and working with a Volvo 850-derived platform, Britain’s TWR (Tom Walkinshaw Racing) co-designed the car's basic design and suspension tuning with Volvo. Manufacture of the C70 was a joint venture until the two companies experienced disputes that threatened to interrupt production; TWR did not contribute to the second generation C70.
Volvo's first modern convertible, the C70 was manufactured in Uddevalla, Sweden on an assembly line separate from the 70-series sedan and station wagon. The four-passenger convertible featured an electrically heated glass rear window; automatic (pop-up) rollover hoops system, marketed as ROPS; seat belt pre-tensioners; A-pillars reinforced with boron steel; front and side airbags; and a safety cage — a horseshoe-like structure around the passenger compartment.
The cloth convertible top, initially available in four colors, was fully automatic, operated by a single, dashboard-mounted control. The top stored automatically under an integral rigid tonneau cover, using a system pioneered in modern convertibles with the fourth generation Mercedes SL.
The C70 convertible exhibited two negative traits endemic to convertibles: poor rear visibility and pronounced scuttle shake, a characteristic where the structural design of the bulkhead between the engine and passenger compartments of a convertible suffers sufficiently poor rigidity to negatively impact ride and handling — and allow noticeable vibration, shudder or chassis-flexing into the passenger compartment.
Early special editions featured two-tone leather interior with wood trim and a SC-901 (1998) Dolby Pro Logic I stereo with 3-disc integrated changer unit (via a cartridge) 400 watts of power and 11 high end Dynaudio speakers.

Common Volvo C70 problems
The Volvo C70, produced between 1997 and 2013, is known for its reliability, thanks to the use of many tried and tested components from the old S70 saloon. However, there are several common problems that owners have reported with this car.
One of the most common issues is the turbo engine's tendency to fail, which can be identified by suspicious-looking blue or black smoke when revving a hot engine. This problem is more likely to occur in cars with high mileage or those that have not been serviced regularly. Regular maintenance and servicing can help prevent this issue, but if the turbo engine has already failed, it may be more cost-effective to look for another car.
Another common problem with the Volvo C70 is the hood's wear and tear, particularly the folding mechanism. The folding roof can be a major bugbear for owners, with squeaks and rattles being the biggest issue. These problems can range from minor irritations to mind-bending annoyances, and dealers can fix the issue, but it may take more than one visit. Some owners swear by lubrication of the roof's weather seals, but it is essential to consult a dealer before doing this. The roof can also jam while in use, requiring it to be removed, repaired, and then refitted, which can be time-consuming and expensive.
The C70 is also known for having brittle cabin trim, particularly around the center console and armrest area. This problem can be more noticeable in cars with higher mileage, and it can lead to a complete electrical failure, which can be challenging to diagnose and repair.
Another common problem with the Volvo C70 is the suspension system, particularly the front suspension's ability to misunderstand the giant wheels. This can lead to the car going where it wants, particularly when hitting a rut. This problem is more noticeable in cars with larger wheels, and it can be challenging to diagnose and repair.
Finally, the Volvo C70 is known for having problems with the cooling fans, which can overheat the car and lead to the need for major repairs. This problem is more likely to occur in cars with higher mileage, and it can be challenging to diagnose and repair.
In conclusion, while the Volvo C70 is known for its reliability, there are several common problems that owners have reported with this car. These problems can range from minor irritations to major issues that can be challenging to diagnose and repair. Regular maintenance and servicing can help prevent many of these problems, but if the car has already developed these issues, it may be more cost-effective to look for another car.

Volvo C70 2008
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-07-05
- VIN: YV1MC67298J
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: This vehicle is the C70 convertible. When driving and hitting a speed bump or a pothole, both the driver and passenger doors pop open from a fully closed state to a partially open state. The doors do NOT fully disengage but in the partially closed state the doors rattle and shake. When this happens, the "door open" warning light appears on the dashboard, and you need to fully open the door and then re-close it. On a standard trip of 25 miles, this occurs no less than 6 times. So this is an ongoing everyday situation. It is a bit disconcerting to be in the car and hear that first door pop and feel the door shake and rattle.
Volvo C70 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-19
- Date Complaint: 2024-06-25
- VIN: YV1672MCXDJ
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: My car is a hard top convertible. When I drive with the top down for a prolonged period of time my driver side door unlocks and a warning light that the door is open comes up on the dashboard. The door doesn't swing open but has loosened and you can feel it rattle. This only happens with the top down, never when the top is up. I have to generally slow down/pull over and then open and slam my door shut. It can be very scary when driving at high speeds. It seems to be happening more and more frequently these days.

Volvo C70 2012
- Date Of Incident: 2023-11-22
- Date Complaint: 2024-01-03
- VIN: YV1672MC7CJ
- Components: SUSPENSION,STRUCTURE,WHEELS
- Summary: There is a know defect with the chassis used for several Volvo car models. My car is a Volvo C70, year 2012. My car is affected by this defect. The defect wasn't disclosed to me at time of sale. I only learned about it literally 10 years later when Volvo of Gilbert (dealership) advised me to install a costly part on the rear suspension of my car because of "excessive negative camber". According to the Volvo repair department, they've known for years of an internal repair "recommendation" memo issued by Volvo that Volvo actually pays for on other models, but won't pay for on mine, to correct this "negative camber" on the rear of the car. ***** The negative camber causes tire walls to fail early and abnormally wear the internal edges of the tires. I've experienced early tire failure on multiple sets of tires on my Volvo C70 and never knew why. Now I know. **Volvo has always known.** I have to replace all of my tires almost every two years due to the inside edges wearing out, despite faithfully rotating my tires several times a year. My tires have worn down to the belt on the inside edges despite having plenty of good tread left in the middle of the tire itself. About two years ago I had a dangerous blowout on the freeway because of a tire that failed early -- now I know it's because of the negative camber. More recently, two of my tires wore down all the way to the belts despite being less than two years old. ***** Volvo knows about this issue. There is a good paper trail of the issue being documented both by Volvo and their customers, but they failed to warn us of the dangerous car suspension and failed to provide the fix to all of us (while providing the fix to some of their customers). ***** Please listen to this 2-minute recording with the Volvo technician (Judd) who disclosed the known defect to me: [XXX] ***** This needs to be rectified for all of us with the faulty chassis'. Thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

- Number Of Deaths: 1
- Crash: 1
- VIN: YV1672MCXBJ
- Components: AIR BAGS
- Summary: The contact owns a 2011 Volvo C70. The contact stated that while her son was driving at an unknown rate of speed on the highway, he veered off the road, hit a road sign, and crashed into a bridge wall. The contact's son was pronounced dead on the scene. A police report was filed which documented that only the passenger side air bag had deployed upon impact. The contact's son passed away as a result of hitting his head on both the driver side door and the steering wheel. The road sign was also damaged as a result of the accident. The vehicle was towed to an independent tow yard after the accident. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the independent mechanic. The failure mileage was unknown.
Volvo C70 2009
- Date Of Incident: 2023-05-29
- Date Complaint: 2023-05-30
- VIN: YV1MC67229J
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: While driving with the top up or down on the highway the doors will intermittently unlock and the security light come on because the door is ajar. This has been going on since I purchacesed the car 2 yrs ago. Now 5/29/23 while driving on the highway the drivers door opened while driving 70 miles an hour. This is a daily occurrence and it happens multiple times daily. This is a dangerous and scary malfunction.
Volvo C70 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2023-05-19
- Date Complaint: 2023-05-29
- VIN: YV1672MC3DJ
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: This is not a singular incident; it has been persistent for five or so years at this point. Quite frequently, when I am driving with the top down for at least 20 minutes, one of the doors unlatches (a couple of weeks ago, this actually occurred six times in one hour or so trip, though such frequency is unusual). For the first year or so this occurred, it was only the driver's door, but then it started happening with both doors (though still more frequently the driver's door). To be clear, it unlatches -- it never has swung open, even if pressure is applied to it. Still, this is jarring when it occurs (all the more so at highway speeds), and I am left to wonder if at some point it will "graduate" to full door opening. I am also especially concerned given that I have a child with a driving learner's permit. I mentioned this in passing to a Volvo dealer service agent a couple of years ago, and he professed to be unaware of it and suggested I would need to bring it in for diagnosis etc. which I have not done. However, having been on the NHTSA site today and seen other complaints about this with this year, make, and model, I felt I should add my experiences to the record. And of course, given those observations, I would like to get it addressed without my having to incur the cost of doing so.
Volvo C70 2011
- Date Of Incident: 2019-02-13
- Date Complaint: 2023-02-03
- VIN: YV1672MCXBJ
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: The passenger door unlatches after hitting mild bumps in the road. The door does not fully open due to the secondary safety latch but it still represents a dangerous condition especially if a person is sitting in the passenger seat.
Volvo C70 2012
- Date Of Incident: 2022-06-26
- Date Complaint: 2022-10-11
- VIN: YV1672MC8CJ
- Components: SEAT BELTS
- Summary: The driver side seat belt gets stuck and is very hard almost impossible to unlatch once it is locked over driver
Volvo C70 2006
- Date Of Incident: 2022-09-22
- Date Complaint: 2022-09-23
- VIN: YV1MC68256J
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,EXTERIOR LIGHTING
- Summary: About 6 months ago I was driving at night and my left headlight went out and about 3 minutes later my other headlight went out? I had to pull over there and wait till day light. When I got home I took the headlights out to find bare wires on both of them? They were just disintegrated!?!? I called Volvo took find out about a new wire harness and was told I have to buy the whole engine wire assembly, costing over $3000.00. I bought 2 more headlight assemblies online and had the same problem!?!? When I tried to change the bulb the coating on the wire just fell off!?!?!? I have heard in other Volvo Forums other people have had this problem with Volvo's headlight wiring problem!?!? It needs to be recalled before someone gets killed if they haven't already!?!?? I can send pics.
Volvo C70 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2022-05-24
- Date Complaint: 2022-06-03
- VIN: YV1672MC5DJ
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: The contact owns a 2013 Volvo C70. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the driver's and passenger's side front doors inadvertently opened. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that the driver's and passenger's side front doors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 75,900.
Volvo C70 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2022-04-24
- Date Complaint: 2022-04-25
- VIN: YV1672MC1DJ
- Components: SUSPENSION,WHEELS
- Summary: I noticed that driving with the top down (the car is a convertible) leads to premature and uneven tire wear. Subsequently the tires generate a lot of road noise and vibration, which is felt through the steering wheel. At 62000 miles I brought the situation to the attention of Volvo service and as a result they made some repairs / changes / updates to the rear suspension, (at my cost of over $2000). At that time I also purchased four new tires. At this point the car has around 72000 miles and the issue has come back (noise / vibration). It appears that the car has a design issue, which prohibits driving it with the top open, even though that is the main purpose of the car as a convertible.
Volvo C70 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2022-04-24
- Date Complaint: 2022-04-25
- VIN: YV1672MC1DJ
- Components: STRUCTURE
- Summary: Within the last 6 months, (fall 2021 – spring 2022), one of the doors in my car has opened multiple times by itself, while I was driving the car. The door was closed properly when I started driving and I did not accidently pull on the door handle. This occurred so far only with the driver side door, while the top was down, (the car is a convertible), and while driving at highway or close to highway speed. Last time the door opened and closed multiple times, before I had a chance to pull over and close it. I noticed the door opening and closing as the interior light came on and off and window lowered down and went up several times, which occurs while the door is being opened. This leads to a dangerous and unpredictable situation.
