Me and my wife just bought our first Volvo 4 DAYS AGO!!! and my wife was on the high way with our 7 month old son when the transmission failed on her and they almost got into a car accident. Thank god she was able to pull over on the side of the high way and call AAA and we had the car towed to the Volvo dealer were we bought it from because they gave us a 3 month/ 3000 mile warranty. And now it's been 3 days and we have no car and the dealer is saying that they are trying to reprogram the transmission.
I wish that I would have read some of these reviews on this model car. Because they all seem to have transmission problems and they should have recalled that problem.
What should we do?

It is a T6 engine I presume?

If so "....demand a new transmission" and then turn around and sell it with a new transmission and the 12 month/12K warranty that comes with.

05 XC90 2.5T FWD TiBlak 97K
