Apparently the steering column is a major fault and if it hasn’t been replaced will need sorting.
Got a 54 Plate one that i’m currently having that issue with, had the affected part out once and refurbished for £250, it lasted 1week so now have to take it all to bits again and send it back for them to have another go.
Other than that I’m pretty happy with it, easy to drive and goes alright pretty well specced considering its a base model.
Sliding back seat is handy and will fit quite a bit of stuff in if needs be.
Theres a YouTube video of a Modus being crashed into a Volvo estate, everyone knows Volvos reputation, the Modus came off better for the occupants so quite good if you decide to have a crash in one.
