What are some common problems with the Volvo XC90?

My coworker just took a new job and is moving to Chicago. As a result, he’s selling his Volvo XC90 that’s a few years old. I’m interested in buying it, but I want to make sure that it doesn’t have any issues now or in the future. Are there any common problems with the Volvo XC90?

If you can get a great price on the
Volvo XC90
, it’s probably a good move on your part. On top of a five-star safety rating, the Volvo XC90 also gets a 3.5-star out of five-star reliability rating from RepairPal. But like with any used car, routine and preventive maintenance can make a world of difference. Watch out for some of these common problems with the Volvo XC90:
  • Issues with the automatic emergency braking system braking for no reason
  • Failure of the AC compressor, which causes hot air to come out when the AC is engaged
  • Oil leaks from the differential housing on all-wheel-drive models
Hopefully, you won’t have any problems with the Volvo XC90. That said, you shouldn’t have any problems with your car insurance rates either if you use the
