What Owners are Saying About the 2026 Volvo XC90
"Significant Issues with the brakes on the XC90."
"I had to replace the front pads and rotors at 14k miles and now at 20k miles have to replace the rear pads and rotors. This is way to soon. I drove a BMW for the last 12 years and replaced the rotors a total of two times and would get at least 30-40k miles out of the pads. The XC90 weighs 6000lbs which I think has a lot to do with the break issues. Volvo clearly went cheap on the breaks. 2nd. The Catalytic Converter at 20k went which was causing the check engine light to come on. Now that my car has been in the shop for a week, the Dealer is having trouble with the Catalytic Converter replacement, I am having severe reservations about the purchase of this SUV. After doing a little research on the break problem I found several other Volvo owners that have had an identical experience relative to the breaks. All this being said I have to give credit to Volvo as cooperate has agreed to handle the repairs under warranty but what happens 14k miles from now when I'm doing this all over again??? This is a very well appointed vehicle with some pretty cool features but if they are failing with the quality of the (simple) mechanical elements, I have very low expectations for the sophisticated electrical components"
"Top best luxury SUV"
"I bought the car February 2018, the styling and quality is superior to all German luxury SUVs. Before buying the car, I researched and drove the Q7, X5 and GL. The XC90 does not have the most power but the comfort, safety and styling is above all the vehicles I drove. I just wish that Volvo would upgrade engine to a V6/I6, I do feel the vehicle needs more power when going uphills or accelerating. Covenience package + Inscription is a must, you wont regret it."
"Love this vehicle. Excellent all the way around."
"A little difficult to navigate the intelligent features, not bad once they are set up. Great performance from a 4 cylinder, 316 hp... great fuel mileage and handling. Gave up my SRT Grand Cherokee and do not regret it. Very nimble for a large vehicle also."
