Volvo reliability/ Sensus system

Dinh335 · 11-08-2016, 04:29 PM

Would love to get any input on owners here who have owned a Volvo, and reliability. I know a car forum isn't the most scientific method but...

We are considering an XC90 , and enjoy the car, but have heard stories about lots of electrical troubles w the Sensus infotainment system, and reliability of the 2016 xc90.

Why not ask on Volvo forum you say? Just hoping for a more unbiased opinion maybe here.

2016 xc90?

Family car is a 2015 XC70 T6 no issues at all. Nor electric or mechanical. It is not a sporty car though. Relatively fast (T6) but soft and understeering quite a bit.

Well, it is owned by the Chinese now. Maybe it is built with leftover iPhone parts?
