AFTER DRIVING FOR AT LEAST AN HOUR THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN FOR A SPLIT SECOND.

HELLO VOLVO, FOR THE RECORD, WE LOVE OUR VOLVO SUV (2004, XC90). OVER THE YEARS THE SERVICE FROM MICHELLE BALSIDE AT VOLVO ON PLAINFIELD ROAD IN CINCINNATI HAS BEEN TRULY EXCELLENT, HER CONTACT INFORMATION IS ATTACHED. HOWEVER, WE HAVE HAS AN ISSUE SINCE 2011 THAT HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED, WHICH IS SO UNCHARACTERISTIC OF VOLVO. I AM HOPING YOU CAN HELP ME CHANGE THE OUTCOME. FOR YEARS MY HUSBANDS RIGHT HEADLIGHT HAS BEEN TURNING ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN HE DRIVES TO AND FROM WORK AT NIGHT ON AN OLD 4 LANE HIGHWAY (COLUMBIA PARKWAY) THAT HAS NO SEPARATION BETWEEN EAST AND WEST BOUND LANES, WHICH MEANS CARS TRAVEL HEAD-ON AT 70 MILES AN HOUR. OUR DEALER LOOKED AT THE ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES AND SAID THEY COULD NOT FIX IT; SO WE LIVED WITH THE DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE WE THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS UNIQUE TO US. RECENTLY, SOMEONE TOLD US THEY WERE HAVING ISSUES WITH THEIR VOLVO HEADLIGHTS AND THEY FOUND A BLOG ON EDMONDS WHICH LISTED A LOT OF OTHER VOLVO OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE ATTACHED THE BLOG FOR YOUR REFERENCE. THE BLOG REFERS TO A REPAIR KIT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF VOLVO CORPORATE CAN SEND A REPAIR KIT TO OUR DEALER IN CINCINNATI. WE HAVE BEEN LOYAL CUSTOMERS AND WE ARE THINKING OF GIVING OUR USED VOLVO TO OUR DAUGHTER WHEN SHE TURNS 16 NEXT SPRING, AND BUYING A NEW VOLVO FOR MY HUSBAND, BILL. PLEASE SHOW YOUR CUSTOMERS THAT YOU CARE AND YOU WILL RESOLVE THE HEADLIGHT ISSUE, IT COULD SAVE A LIFE SOMEDAY. FOR NOW, WE HOPE AND PRAY ON A DAILY BASIS THAT THE HEADLIGHT FUNCTIONS AS IT SHOULD.

THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THE ELECTRONICS NEVER CAME BACK ON. I COULDN'T MAKE IT UP A SMALL HILL ON THE ROAD TO GET SAFELY HOME. MY TRANSMISSION WOULDN'T PULL. THE SPEED GAUGE AND RPMS WERE COMPLETELY UNWORKING. WINDOWS WOULD NOT ROLL DOWN AIR HAD WENT OUT. POWER STEERING TEMPORARILY WENT OUT. MADE IT HOME FINALLY AND NOTHING SEEMS WRONG NOW BUT THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. I COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN IN A WREAK OR STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH MY BABIES.

3PE10025 · Central Electronic Module Failure
Opened Jul 20, 2010 · Closed Nov 22, 2010
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Electrical System
Volvo acknowledged a problem affecting some subject vehicles involving water seepage into the plenum box area in the engine compartment.When this occurs water may enter into the interior / passenger compartment and track along the wiring harness for the Central Electronic Module (CEM), the device that controls many of the vehicle's electrical functions including wiper operation, lighting, and transmission operation.If the water reaches the CEM connector electrical faults may result.In response to such faults the CEM, a microprocessor controlled device, will attempt to reset by temporarily shutting down (for 100 milliseconds, or 0.1 seconds) and restarting; this effects various CEM functions including the instrument panel (IP) display, gauges, wipers and also the transmission gear (if it is in the overdrive range).During the reset owners may experience temporarily loss of the IP displays and an abnormal 'jerking' in the transmission/drivetrain.If the problem persist for 6 consecutive restart attempts, the CEM will enter a 'Limp Home' mode that disables non-essential electrical functions yet maintain safety critical functions such as low-beam headlights, low-speed wiper operation, brake lights, and non-overdrive transmission operation.Warning and error messages will also be illuminated in the IP display.Consumers reported experiencing conditions consistent with CEM resetting and the limp mode operation in their reports to both ODI and Volvo.No reports or allegations of crash or injury associated with possible CEM failures have been reported by Volvo or otherwise identified by ODI.Volvo revised the design of the wiring grommet (sealing device) and the plenum cover starting in May 2005 and October 2005 production dates respectively, the occurrence of the condition effectively ended after these changes.A technical service bulletin (TNN 37-35) has been published to diagnose and repair earlier production vehicles using the improved wiring grommet and/or new plenum cover.A safety-related defect has not been identified at this time and further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.Accordingly, this investigation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by NHTSA that a safety-related defect does not exist.The agency will monitor this issue and reserves the right to take further action if warranted by the circumstances.
