ABS light or ABS activating by model year
What owners say
Dt: the throttle will flutter and the accelerator will cut out when pressing the accelerator pedal as well as vibrate. The vehicle stalled/died and lost power. The problem was fixed in february 2004, but it recurred. *ak *mr when the cruise control fails the odometer fails as well. The ABS and brake light illuminated as well.
This is the second submission (part two, actually) of complaint # 10137311, regarding volvo throttle control module and cruise control. I had to divide the description into two sections due to space limitations. Part two of odi # 10137311: may 2004 (45,000 mile service) -car idling roughly, not accelerating smoothly, and clunking sound when accelerating. Upper engine torque mount. Clunking noise disappeared. Car seemed to accelerate more normally after servicing. Summer 2004- car cutting off when accelerating after turning and warning light(s) on. Cruise control continues cutting off, causing deceleration; car continues to idle roughly and accelerate un-smoothly. When it is time for engine to automatically be given a little more gas (such as going up a hill), the cruise control shuts off and the "ABS" light comes on. Sometimes "check engine" light comes on, either alone or in addition to the ABS warning light. September 20, 2005--warranty expired--67,500 mile service- again reported cruise control/warning light problem to dealership,supposedly need new control module, costing $1,000. Problem was reported repeatedly while car under warranty; don't repair at my expense because problem developed while under warranty. Using cell phone while conversing with dealership. Woman in same store overheard conversation, told me of similar problems with sudden deceleration, and gave me your url. [xxx]. Vin [xxx] (1999 s70) throttle control not yet replaced. *jb updated 07/18/2012 *js information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)
1999 s70 volvo awd. Check engine light and ABS light and ets lights displayed. The dealer replaced the etm module 8/3/05 at a cost of $906.75 and the ABS module at a cost of $845.46. Both services performed by dealer in winston salem,nc .
The vehicle would start to drag from side to side while there was a smell coming through the inside of the vehicle. The owner would have to pull over and restart the vehicle. Taken to dealer for checkup and results showed that the ABS control module needed to be replaced.
Consumer stated that while driving and without warning ABS failed. Dealer notified.
