Volvo S60 problems
The Volvo S60 is a compact executive car manufactured and marketed by Volvo since 2000.
The first generation (2000–2009) was launched in autumn of 2000 in order to replace the S70 and was based on the P2 platform. It had a similar designed estate version called Volvo V70 and a high performance engine and sports-oriented suspension version called S60 R. Styling cues were taken from the ECC concept car and the S80.
The second generation (2010–2018) was released in 2010 for the 2011 model year and has its own estate version, known as the Volvo V60.
The third generation joined the Volvo line-up in 2018 for the 2019 model year. It is built on a shortened version of the Scalable Product Architecture platform, in America's first Volvo factory in Ridgeville, South Carolina. The US became the sole global source of the S60 sedan after production in China was phased out in early 2019.

Common Volvo S60 problems
The Volvo S60 is a popular luxury sedan, but like any vehicle, it can have its fair share of common problems. Here are some of the most frequently reported issues with the Volvo S60, based on complaints from owners:
- Software issues: There have been reports of software problems in the Volvo S60, particularly with the vehicle connectivity module (VCM) that sends location information to the emergency services after a collision. This issue affects cars built between 26 September 2018 and 30 October 2018, and can be fixed with a software update at any Volvo dealer.
- Loose rear suspension nuts: Some Volvo S60s built between 25 September 2018 and 1 April 2019 may have loose nuts and screws on the rear suspension. If your car is affected, contact your local dealer for a check and replacement if necessary.
- Automatic emergency braking (AEB) system: There have been reports of the AEB system not applying the brakes when it should, particularly in V60, S90, V90, XC40, XC60, and XC90 models built after 21 January 2019. A software update can fix this issue, and affected owners should have been contacted by Volvo. However, it's always a good idea to check with your local retailer for further information.
- ABS light illuminated: The ABS light may be illuminated on the dashboard, indicating a problem with the ABS control module. This is a relatively common issue on the S60, and the only solution is to replace the entire failed control module.
- Acceleration hesitation: Some Volvo S60 owners have reported hesitation when accelerating, which may be accompanied by idle engine issues and an illuminated check engine light. This problem can be caused by a failed mass airflow sensor (MAF), which will need to be replaced.
- Fuel leaks: Fuel leaks are a serious issue in the Volvo S60, particularly in models built between 2010 and 2018. These leaks can be caused by high-pressure fuel lines not being installed correctly, and can lead to a fire risk if not addressed quickly. It's important to check your high-pressure fuel lines and replace them if necessary.
- Engine seizure: Some early examples of the Volvo S60 may have an incorrectly installed radiator hose, leading to a loss of coolant and engine seizure. If you notice your engine overheating or seizing, it's important to address this issue immediately by replacing the radiator hose.
- Unusual smell inside car: An unusual smell inside the car, accompanied by an engine warning light and hesitation when accelerating, can indicate a serious problem in Volvo S60s with 2.0 ltr engines. This issue affects around 70,000 Volvos in the UK and can lead to a petrol fire if not addressed quickly.
- Exhaust system problems: There have been reports of exhaust system problems in the Volvo S60, particularly in 2.0-litre diesel models. These issues can lead to failures of the heated rear screen and the radar system, which helps cruise control to maintain a set distance from the car in front.
- Airbags not deploying correctly: There have been reports of airbags not deploying correctly during accidents in the Volvo S60. It's important to check with a Volvo dealer to make sure your car isn't affected by this issue.
In general, the Volvo S60 has a reputation for reliability, with the brand finishing in 11th place out of 31 manufacturers included in the latest reliability survey by What Car?. However, as with any vehicle, it's important to be aware of common problems and address them promptly to ensure the safety and longevity of your car.

Volvo S60 2016
- Date Of Incident: 2024-06-26
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-03
- VIN: YV4612UM0G2
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: In November of 2021, I purchased my dream car, a 2016 Volvo s60 Cross Country, proud to own a vehicle from a company known for their safe and reliable vehicles. In April of 2022, a class action case ([XXX], et al., v. Volvo Car USA, LLC, Volvo Cars of North America, LLC, and Volvo Personvagnar AB) was issued against Volvo due to a KNOWN-TO-VOLVO DESIGN FLAW in their engines which could lead to engine failure. The case was settled out of court in early 2023 and Volvo issued an extended warranty for vehicles owners to take preventative measures against potential engine failure. Although my car is listed under the extended warranty, I was never sent any notice of it from Volvo. On [XXX], while driving on a highway, at speed limit, my 2016 Volvo s60 Cross Country's engine failed. I learned about the Extended Warranty from a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Quality Bulletin (Extended Warranty P10183: I5T Oil Consumption Replace; Model Year 20132016 S60, 2015-2016 V60, V60CC and XC60, 2016 XC70, S60CC and S60L) while researching the issue with my car online. I contacted Volvo Customer Care to ask why I was not sent notice and what they could do. I was told that to open a case with Volvo I would need a diagnostic from a dealership. On August 5, 2024, I took my car in for a diagnostic at Patrick Volvo Cars in Schaumburg, IL, from who I also purchased the car in 2021. August 6, 2024 I received a partial diagnostic and was told that they would require 10x the original diagnostic price to find the root of the issue in the engine. On the same day, I called Volvo customer care and opened a case. After weeks of little to no communication, on September 3 Volvo denied my case. I was not provided any opportunity to communicate over the phone with my case manager at Volvo - only after she sent me the decision did I receive a call from her to learn Volvo does not care about my side of the story. Please view attached documents for more details, thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Volvo S60 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-23
- Date Complaint: 2024-08-23
- VIN: YV1612FH3D1
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: Engine has excessive oil consumption and sets owners up for expensive testing and repairs, because when the original recall came out, many Volvo s60 with excessive oil consumption were barely out of the allowed mileage range, which sticks the owners with excessive repairs. Volvo should stand behind this problem that effects numerous Volvo s60’s and compensate the repairs.

- Date Complaint: 2024-08-14

Volvo S60 2017
- Date Of Incident: 2024-08-11
- Date Complaint: 2024-08-12
- VIN: LYV402TM6HB
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: Yesterday I took my one year old granddaughter to North Carolina, which is an hour and a half drive away. We had breakfast with family members and I loaded her into the back seat. When I closed the door it looked as if the door closed, but as I began to drive, the door swung open. I attempted to close the door again, and the latch would not connect to the hook inside of the driver side rear door. I ended up needing to have my son sit in the back seat and hold the door closed the entire ride home (an hour and a half) to make sure that the door would not open again. I am currently driving my "new" car with a ratchet strap going from door to door to hold the door closed so that I can go to work. I found information stating that there was a recall on the Volvo S60 (2017) but when I enter my VIN nothing displays. I just bought the vehicle in February and the dealership is telling me that this will cost me $450 to repair on my MAX CARE warranty. Why? When the vehicle had a recall on it in 2020 that obviously was never addressed, prior to me purchasing it.
Volvo S60 2013
- Date Of Incident: 2024-07-13
- Date Complaint: 2024-07-15

Additionally defrost/defog wasn’t working, and my son reported having to pull over and wait for the rain to stop so he could drive with the windows down in order to be able to see the road. INCREDIBLY unsafe/unable to drive in the rain. I recently applied pressure to the inside of the windshield with my fingertips by the A-pillars on both driver and passenger side to test the seal and visually confirmed the windshield was lifting off of the frame, revealing a broken seal along the top and sides of the windshield.

- Date Of Incident: 2023-09-01
- Date Complaint: 2024-07-07
- VIN: YV1622FS5C2
- Components: ENGINE
- Summary: Discovered that my engine is burning oil. There was no warning from my vehicle or from Volvo (during regular maintenance) that this was happening. It was just sudden that the check engine light went on and I checked the oil and found that it was basically empty. Volvo confirmed that the engine is burning oil and that this model and make was discovered to have this engine issue. Volvo did not offer a solution other than to buy a new vehicle to replace this one. In my research online, this problem is common for this model and make 2012 S60 T5, may other have reported the same issue and it seems that there is a recall for this problem but my vehicle (VIN) does not report this to be a problem for my car. I’m not sure what to do.

I spoke to my local mechanic and he had another Volvo S60 T5 in his shop with the same issue showing up but that owner was lucky enough to not have the engine destroyed in the process. From what he is saying is that every other car has some kind of timing belt protection that the Volvo S60 is missing. In searching the Internet this is a very common issue that occurs.

In April, I was involved in an accident while returning from Spring Break with my 2006 SAAB 9.3 2.0 turbo. Despite the fact that my car was totaled, I was very lucky to have only sustained minor injuries. I witnessed some major injuries of the two vehicles that crashed before me. After the accident, I went searching for a new vehicle and although I had initially considered getting an SUV or crossover, my heart was set on getting another luxury car like my SAAB. I test drove several cars, but ultimately fell in love with the Volvo S60.

I really enjoy my car, especially since I started driving the S60 T5. It handles really well, even on ice, and has a lot of power. Although there have been some minor issues, like having to repair the CD player twice in 6 months, replacing a rod, and having an alignment issue, I still love it. The only thing I don't like is that there is no trunk release inside the car. Overall, it's a great ride and I'm happy with it despite its imperfections!

No wonder most people who buy a Volvo end up buying a few more in their lifetime. Your S60 has been a pleasure to drive overall. You've gone through two winters and several long trips and the S60 is an extremely nice place to be in on a long drive...with the best seats in the world!

The sports package truly makes a difference. I test drove a premium without the sport upgrade and was disappointed. However, when mine arrived on the back of a carrier with only 2.7 miles and a surprise sports package, I was absolutely delighted!

Are you having problems with your Volvo S60?
Henri Schneider 2024-11-29
Vehicle year: 2018
There are a few things that I don't particularly like about the car. Firstly, I can hear quite a bit of road noise, which can be a bit distracting. Additionally, the response time from a dead stop is slower than expected, even when using the S transmission. The heater controls are a bit unusual, and I've found that the windows tend to fog up unless the defrost is on. However, you can't use the defrost and the floor heat at the same time, which can be a bit inconvenient. The Bluetooth can also be a bit tricky to use, and I've found that if I'm listening to the radio, the phone rings but can't be used through the car unless I choose the phone. Furthermore, the car's GPS/map won't work unless it's connected to the internet, which can be a bit confusing while driving. Despite these minor issues, the car has a lot of great safety features, and the AWD is amazing in the snow. The car also handles very well. While it may not be the best car for drag racing, I still think it's a nice car overall. However, I personally prefer my Nissan Altima.

The MPG is slightly lower than the 04 V70 2.5t wagon, but it did improve a bit with new tires. I've had it for about 2 years and find the front seats to be very comfortable. However, it doesn't drive quite as smoothly as the older wagon.
Demond Kunze 2024-11-26
Vehicle year: 2021
I was considering purchasing the 2019/2020 Volvo S60 and decided to rent one for 2 weeks to test it out. Unfortunately, my experience was not great. While the engine and drivetrain were good, the car had some serious ergonomic issues. The driveshaft tunnel was too high and there was very limited storage space. The touchscreen menus were frustrating and the car only had one USB port, which is not acceptable for a luxury car. Additionally, the seating position was uncomfortable and the poor visibility was a safety concern. The trunk space was also limited, which made packing for a family trip challenging. During my rental, I experienced some issues with the car's workmanship and design. Overall, I was disappointed with my experience, especially since I used to own a Volvo 960.The transmission went out one day and the quote to fix it was $3500. After putting in a reconditioned transmission for $2200, I decided to sell. Unfortunately, I was disappointed that Volvo's quality had not improved in the last 20 years. Needless to say, I will not be buying, leasing, or recommending any Volvo in the future. It's just not worth the headache, frustration, and money.
Murphy Robel 2024-11-24
Vehicle year: 2008
When I first bought this car, I really liked it. However, I have come to regret my purchase. It seems to be too small for a person of average size, and the back seat is not spacious enough for even a child. The trunk space is also not very practical. Although it is marketed as a sport sedan, it does not quite live up to that expectation. Additionally, the gas mileage is poor for a car of its size and with only 5 cylinders. Unfortunately, the reliability of the car is also suspect. I have had to take it to the dealership 4 times in the past 4 months for two intermittent problems, one with the antilock brakes and the other with the radio. The second problem has yet to be resolved, and the dealer has not been able to fix it without keeping the car for a week at a time. In conclusion, I would advise against making the same mistake I did and instead consider purchasing a Japanese car.

I have owned my T6 for a little over a year now and while there have been some issues, I am confident in the warranty and the ability to have them taken care of with little or no cost. Although I knew purchasing a Volvo would not equate into a performance-oriented drive, I am still satisfied with my purchase. While there may be some body roll and road noise, I find the car comfortable and quiet. I appreciate the sleek design and overall appearance of the car. While there have been some odd shifting habits between 40 and 50 mph, I am confident that these can be resolved. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase and look forward to enjoying it for years to come.
