MY 2015 VOLVO SEMI HAS BEEN THE ROUGHEST RIDING TRUCK I HAVE BEEN IN. IT HAS FRONT AIR RIDE SUSPENSION, AND EXHIBITS UNUSUALLY HEAVY CAB SWAY, AND TAKES A LOT OF ATTENTION AND STEERING INPUT TO STAY IN ITS OWN LANE. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT NUMEROUS TIMES TO.THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT NEW FROM, AND DISCUSS IT WITH OTHER VOLVO DEALERS AROUND THE COUNTRY. I AM NOT NEW TO VOLVO. I DROVE 8 DIFFERENT ONES FROM 2006 THRU 2008 WHILE EMPLOYED AT KNIGHT TRANSPORTATION. SINCE BUYING IT BRAND NEW I HAVE: 1. REPLACED LEAKING CAB SHOCK ON DRIVERS SIDE 2. TAKEN TRUCK BACK TO SAME SHOP TO HAVE SSME NEW SHOCK RETIGHTENED. 3. PURCHASED EXTRA THICK.$800.00 TEMPURPEDIC MATTRESS TO TRY AND RESOLVE CO DRIVERS COMPLAINT ABOUT BEING UNABLE TO SLEEP 4. HAD CHASSIS AIR RIDE HEIGHT ADJUSTED 3 DIFFERENT TIMES TRYING TO IMPROVE ROUGH RIDE. 5. .REPLACED FACTORY CHASSIS SHOCKS WITH EXPENSIVE ROADKING AFTERMARKET SHOCKS 6. REPLACED CAB SHOCKS AND LEVELING VALVE TRYING TO ALLEVIATE ROUGH RIDE AND CAB SWAY 7. 30 DAYS AFTER NEW CABSHOCKS WERE INSTALLED, CAB ACTUALLY TWISTED ON.ITS MOUNTS OVER 1.5 INCHES. LOOKING FROM BEHIND, THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG WAS LEANING TO THE LEFT. VOLVO DEALER REPOSITIONED CAB AND MODIFIED REAR CAB BUSHING.MOUNTS. 8. BOUGHT NEW DRIVE TIRES, AS ONE VOLVO DEALER CLAIMED THAT THE HANDLING AND SWAY PROBLEMS WERE DUE TO BRIDGESTONE M710 SERIES DRIVE TIRES THAT HAD DEEP AND SOFT TREAD LUGS THAT CAUSED THE REAR SUSPENSION TO PULL IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS 9. VISITED AND PURCHASED SPECIAL INLINE AIR METERING VALVES FROM DON VEL ENGINEERING IN CLEARWATER TEXAS THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO CONTROL CAB SWAY. NOT MUCH HAS IMPROVED. I BELIEVE THE CAB SUSPENSION DESIGN HAS FLAWED ENGINEERING WITH THE GEOMETRY ANGLES OF FRONT MOUNTS AND SHOCK MOUNT ANGLES ON THE REAR. ALL VOLVO OWNERS HAVE RESIGNED THEMSELVES TO.PUT UP WITH WEEBLE WOBBLE HANDLING

WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH OUR VEHICLE FROM THE BEGINNING. WE FILED AN EARLIER COMPLAINT. WE HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING COMING FROM THAT COMPLAINT, BUT HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH AN ODI INVESTIGATOR. WHEN TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD, OUR TRUCK HIT A BRIDGE ABUTMENT AND THE CAB BOTTOMED OUT HARD ON THE CHASSIS AND THE CAB SWAYED AGGRESSIVELY TO THE POINT THE DRIVER LOST CONTROL. I WAS IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT BOTTOMED OUT AND FELT AN INTENSE PAIN GO FROM MY LOWER BACK AND UP THROUGH MY SPINE TO MY HEAD. THE TRUCK SWAYED AND JERKED AND MY NECK WAS SLAPPED BACK AND FORTH AND I COULD FEEL AND HEAR MY SPINE SNAP IN MY NECK. I HAD AN INSTANT AND INTENSE HEADACHE. I THOUGHT IT WOULD GO AWAY, BUT IT DID NOT. I SAW A DOCTOR AND HE DIAGNOSED INJURY FROM THAT INCIDENT. I HAVE BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR OVER A MONTH NOW FROM THIS INCIDENT. VOLVO HAS MADE NUMEROUS AND UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS TO FIX MY TRUCK. THE TRUCK IS GETTING WORSE AND IT IS GETTING HARDER TO CONTROL THIS VEHICLE WHEN ON UNEVEN ROAD SURFACES. IT SWAYS SO BAD, PASSING VEHICLES ARE AFRAID TO PASS US AND SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES. I AM AFRAID THAT WHEN I RETURN TO WORK, I WILL JUST GET INJURED AGAIN. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE CAUSES AN EXTREME AMOUNT OF FATIGUE WHICH IS REALLY AFFECTING MY HEALTH. I REALLY NEED THE ODI TO LOOK INTO THIS MATTER.

DT*: THE CONTACT STATED THE TRACTOR TRAILER'S STEERING SYSTEM PULLED TO EITHER SIDE WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP IN MANY DIFFERENT STATES WHO DETERMINED ALIGNMENT PROBLEMS. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT HAVE THE PROPER EQUIPMENT FOR HEAVY TRUCK ALIGNMENT SO IT HAD BEEN REFERRED TO OTHER COMPANIES WITH THE SPECIALIZED ALIGNMENT EQUIPMENT. AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AGAIN. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TAKEN IN FOR ALIGNMENT NINE TIMES, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. ALSO, THE TREAD LOCATED IN MIDDLE OF BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE EXCESSIVELY WORN OUT. THE DEALERSHIP DETERMINED THE ALIGNMENT AS THE SOURCE OF THIS IRREGULAR WEAR. THE THIRD PROBLEM WAS ON THE SEMI REAR AXLE, WHICH WAS NOT PARALLEL TO THE MIDDLE AXLE CREATING IRREGULAR ANGULAR DISPLACEMENT OF THE TRAILER, WHICH ENTAILED A SERIOUS RISK TO OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. THE INNER TIRE OF THE REAR AXLE WORE EXCESSIVELY INDICATING STRUCTURAL DEFECT IN THE AXLE MOUNTING.
