I HAVE A 2006 VOLVO C70 AND THE TIERS STARTED TO LOOSE AIR. WHEN I HAD THE VEHICLE INSPECTED I FOUND OUT THAT THREE OF THE FOUR 18' RIMS HAD CRACKS ON THE INSIDE OF THE RIM EDGE...WITH A LITTLE RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2006 VOLVO C70. IT IS AN OUTRAGE THAT VOLVO DOES NOT YET HAVE TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WHO KNOWS HOW MANY ACCIDENTS HAVE OR WILL HAPPEN DUE TO A TIRE GOING FLAT ON THIS MODEL AND RIM SIZE. I KNOW THAT SOMETIMES RIMS CAN GET DAMAGED HOWEVER," ALL ARE CRACKING IN THE SAME AREA". I WILL HAVE TO REPLACE ALL THREE RIMS TO MAKE THE VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. R. SWANEY. *TR

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS OVER SEVERAL MONTHS , THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR WOULD POP OPEN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OR EVEN AT SLOWER SPEEDS WHEN TAKING A TURN. WAS RANDOMLY OCCURRING AND NOT NECESSARILY RELATED TO DRIVING OVER ANY BUMPS. DEALER KEPT FOR SEVERAL WEEKS STATING DOOR LATCH WAS IN SPEC AND THAT MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT REIMBURSE DEALER IF NOT DEFECTIVE PART. FIRST DEALER ATTEMPTED TO PUT IN METAL SPLINTS WEDGED INTO THE FRONT DOOR PANEL FRAME. PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. FINALLY DEALER REPLACED DOOR LATCH AND PROBLEM HAS NOT REOCCURRED IN 8 MONTHS SINCE. HAVE SEEN SIMILAR REPORTS ONLINE FROM OTHER CAR OWNERS. *TR
