ON 6-9-05, I TOOK THE CAR TO THE VOLVO DEALER IN SANTA ANA, CA WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE.  I WAS TOLD THAT THEIR DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE SHOWED THAT I HAD A THROTTLE PROBLEM; I WAS CHARGED (AS I'M OUT OF WARRANTY) FOR THE DIAGNOSIS AND CLEANING OF THE THROTTLE.  I TOLD THE SERVICE PERSONNEL AT THE DEALERSHIP THAT I UNDERSTOOD THAT CLEANING THE ETM WOULD ONLY BE A TEMPORARY FIX FOR THIS EMISSION PART AND THAT VOLVO NEEDED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THEIR ELECTRONIC THROTTLE IS AN INHERENT PROBLEM IN ALL 1999, 2000 AND 2001 SERIES 60, 70, 80 MODELS (WITH GAS ENGINES) AND ETMS NEED TO BE REPLACED.  UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, IT'S BEEN SHOWN THAT VOLVO KNEW ABOUT THIS WHOLE ETM ISSUE IN 1998 BEFORE THE FIRST CARS WERE SOLD.  A REDESIGN TO ELIMINATE THE FAILURE PRONE POTENTIOMETER THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR WOULD HAVE FIXED THIS ISSUE.   I UNDERSTAND THAT THE ETMS IN NEWER MODEL VOLVOS NOW USE A HALL EFFECT  SENSOR WHICH IS A NON CONTACTING DEVICE, MEANING VOLVO KNOWS HOW TO  MAKE A NON CONTACTING UNIT.   PLEASE ADVISE HOW TO GET VOLVO TO RE-CALL THE CARS IN QUESTION AS THEY ARE NOT SAFE.  LIKE MANY VOLVO OWNERS, WE BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR IT'S SAFETY.  WE CERTAINLY WANT TO AVOID THE SITUATION WHERE WE PRESS THE ACCELERATOR, SUDDENLY LOSE POWER, AND GET CAUGHT IN THE FAST LANE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, BECOMING AN IMMEDIATE TARGET FOR OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD.*JB","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2001","productMake":"VOLVO","productModel":"VOLVO","manufacturer":"Volvo Car USA, LLC"}]}]}
