I purchased a 2023 Volvo XC60 Recharge in January 2023 for over $70,000, expecting the premium quality and reliability Volvo promises. Instead, this vehicle has been a relentless source of frustration, riddled with persistent issues that have made ownership a nightmare. Within just two weeks, the check engine light flared up, forcing an early shop visit. The problem resurfaced in July 2023, leaving the car sidelined for a week. Over the next 18 months, the infotainment system became a constant headache—audio outages, malfunctioning parking sensors and cameras, and lost data connectivity forced me to waste hours on online troubleshooting to avoid repeated dealer trips. The situation escalated in February 2025 when a critical engine failure triggered "turtle mode," crippling the vehicle to a 45 mph crawl. This required a grueling three-week repair. Barely six weeks later, in May 2025, the charging cable became stuck, rendering the car completely inoperable. This fiasco demanded a tow, caused a 30-minute delay to work, and led to another two weeks in the shop. In under 2.5 years, this $70,000 vehicle has been out of service for a staggering six weeks. Despite escalating these issues to Volvo corporate, I received nothing but dismissive responses and zero meaningful resolution. Volvo’s utter failure to stand behind their product reveals a brand that prioritizes profits over customers. The XC60 Recharge is not just unreliable—it’s a betrayal of trust, delivering endless breakdowns and stress instead of the luxury it promises. Choosing Volvo means risking your money, time, and peace of mind on a company that abandons you when things go wrong. Save yourself the regret: do NOT buy from Volvo

I love my volvo. I have one that is fully loaded, and it is so luxe and fun to drive. The turbo makes it literally zoomier than my husband's mustang, but it can also go all day without any gas at all if I need to use it in pure mode.

Works really well. Good power, great styling. Pros include 18 gal tank. Negs include odometer buried in menu system not on display. Same with switching modes. Had a knob on last car. Now buried in menus.
