Last year my S80 Volvo stalled on the highway due to an ETM defect. Two days, I experienced another serious safety issue with the Volvo. I was driving the car on a busy street. Suddenly, an electronic message came up indicating a problem with the air bag. Then two seconds later, a 'check engine message' came up. Within another minute another message indicated 'transmission service required urgently'. then within two minutes the car went to a limp mode. They were cars behind me. It was a miracle that we were not involved in an accident. I searched the internet and found out that many people have experienced similar problems. I found many complaints online related to Volvo sudden transmission failure. Some were even involved in accidents when their cars suddenly stopped. I am wondering whether the government had looked at this serious safety hazard. Volvo must be aware of the defect. I am very concerned that no one holds them accountable and that no recall has been made thus far to address this issue. I had the car towed to the nearest Volvo garage. I was told that the transmission needs to be replaced. It will cost $5000 to fix the car. I called Volvo North America to report the problem. They did not help.
