And problems 2015 Volvo S60

Post by Buzz2 »

Good afternoon to all. First time visiting site. I have a 2015 S60 Premier AWD. I am getting a ABS/ESC fai!ure notice. Went to a local tire service and they replaced the sensor but that didn't work. They are saying I need a new wheel bearing and want to charge me $625 . they charged me $98 for the sensor which I thought was fair but I am afraid that they may not know the actual problem. Also I am also getting a "city safety service required" notice and most importantly on occasion when I start the car and begin to leave the car has no power and will not accelerate so I stop and turn off the car and start it again and it is fine. I am hoping someone can help me because I cannot afford to bring it to Volvo deal or for repair. Look forward to hearing from you. Thank u.!!!!

See if you can find a local Volvo or Euro independent, avoid tire shops doing diagnosis.

Some of the parts suppliers may scan the car for free. Autozone or the likes may be worth a call.

Having your own scanner is worthwhile and is cheaper than an hour of dealer diagnostics. If you are not comfortable doing the check yourself, there may also be a local independent. I see you have NY as the location. Depending where you are, Abscate has mentioned he has a good local repair shop he uses if I recall correctly.

You lose power when your car detects a drivability issue and it will reduce power to the engine for safety.
