Volvo XC60 reliabilty

[Zara85]

Hi all , new here


Im hoping you can all help. I am considering a Volvo XC60 , i have got down to three cars that suit my persnal needs and my practical needs , the Kia sorento, Volvo XC60 and the mercedes GLC.

All three suit my needs , all three i can afford to buy outright and there running and maintance costs , i love the exterior and interior of all three. I have took short and long test drive of all Three and am still stuck.

I joined as the only thing i dont know yet is how reliable each is and what issues if any either car has. So im hoping you can tell me how reliable the XC60 is ( im talking about newer models as mine would be a brand new car) and what issues the Xc60will have if any?

I will only be keeping it in warrenty as i never keep a car out of warrenty. So once the warrenty has come to an end swapping for a new model.

Im wanting to stay with the same brand so if i do pick the XC60 i would be staying with Volvo in the future for example.

Looking forward to hearing from you all.

Hi to you and welcome to the Forum.

I think from reading your post that you are looking at a brand new XC60. The Series 2 XC60 was launched in July 2017, so all of these models are still well within their warranty period.

You would be better posting in the sub forum 2 below this one - it is headed XC60 > ‘17....

Here you will find threads relating to all issues that Members have had (or not) with their vehicles.

Generally, the new XC60 has been pretty stable, occasional software glitches that are sorted under warranty by software upgrades at the Dealer.

Hope that helps and you decide to buy a Volvo - I don’t think that you will be disappointed.
