Xc90 fault

skulldog · May 26th, 2016, 20:57

Hi Guys,

I am new to the forum but I purchased a new XC90 momentum late last year.
I have a fault on the car which Volvo are struggling to resolve...
The fault is that the car drifts dramatically to the left when the steering wheel is released.
It has been back for repair numerous times...it clears up for 50-60 miles and then returns!!!
Anyone else had this problem?
Cheers
Mike

Ask the dealer to have the tracking set up on a Hunter machine this prove if it has a fault on the tracking, from an independent source ,may also be the tyres do they have any strange wear pattern?

Do you have the Lane Departure system fitted to your car?
I believe it will pull the car to the left if it detects your car drifting over the white line.

I meant to say the white line on the right of the car.
If you drift towards the left lane marking, it will nudge the steering to the right.
Just tested this system today when I took an R Design for a drive.

I have a momentum registered July 2015, bought the car in Feb, it has done 6k mikes. My car has recently started doing this on motorway, but only slightly. Also car makes a slight knocking noise when turning into a parking space or very slow turn.

Did you manage to find out what problem was?
