Volvo equipment problems
Owners have filed 258 complaints with NHTSA about the equipment on Volvo vehicles — 2% of everything reported about the brand, across 37 models. The model that accounts for most of them is the Volvo 850, worst in 1996.
These are raw counts. A model that sold in millions appears near the top for that reason alone — the grade never compares one model with another.
