Owner Narrative
MY 2003 XC90 VOLVO INSTRUMENTAL PANEL IS FAILING. ONE DAY THE SRS AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SEVERAL WEEKS LATER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGAN TO FAIL. IT WORKS FOR THE FIRST 10 MINUTES THEN ALL GAUGES FAIL, NEEDLES ARE AT ZERO AND THERE IS NO LIGHT. BASICALLY THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL GOES BLANK (OFF) NO SPEED , NO RPM'S, NO GAS AND THE RADIO HAS STOPPED WORKING AS OF A RESULT OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILURE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE THERE ARE COUNTLESS XC90 VOLVO OWNERS HAVING BAD LUCK WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILURE. COSTING OWNERS OVER $1000 TO REPAIR AND REPLACE AT VOLVO DEALERSHIPS.
