on the first day i took this brand new 2014 volvo vnl sleeper truck off the lot the def system failed and shut my truck down i was barely able to get it back to the dealer's. massive drive line vibration also felt but dealer could not figure out the problem six months later transmission failure. i also suffered 3 of 8 shock failure truck was floating and swaying in high winds very dangerous. the alternator failed six months later no warning starting over charging i was going through the system check and detected it before it blew an ecm. i also suffered a oil pressure sensor failure this problem has been in the volvo trucks since their 2009 model and they are still using the old sensors. i have suffered massive down time and loss of revenue due to this and hope they improve their product. their are many other driver suffering these same problem but due to computer illiteracy they can't give voice to their issues thanks.
