(Freya Svensson) "O Rusnak Volvo" - A Swedish Folkloric

http://rusmackedvolvo.com/ In this episode I am doing a soulful rendition of "O Volvo Rusnak" in the Swedish Folkloric style. Dust off your clogs and sing along! I am Freya Svensson a Swedish soccer-mom of 2 living in Pasadena, California and a loyal Volvo customer for over two decades. I am documenting my experience with my Volvo XC70 which has been getting serviced at Rusnak Volvo in Pasadena. Over the last few months I have been going back and forth between the local Rusnak Volvo dealer and corporate management at Volvo of North America. Follow my saga on Facebook (Freya Svensson), Twitter (@rusmackedvolvo) and my blog (http://rusmackedvolvo.com).

Hey Freya, your story made even on the Canadian Public Radio. Some big waves you got here.

[RusmackedVolvo]

That's cool. Do you know were we can hear the clip?

[MazingerZoo]

Can you put an mp3 of this on your site? I want this on my playlist, this is awesome.

[RusmackedVolvo]

@MazingerZoo I am working on it.

Funny video! But it's tragic what happened to that company. I had a Volvo V70 XC. Bumped into a snowbank and the front of the car disintegrated, $2800 in damage. Fixed it, sold it, bought a 1991 Volvo 240 with 150K on it. Beautiful machine. Coincidentally I named it Freya. I always name cars I like.

Nice story on Autoblog! If Volvo won't listen, there are thousands that will. Hey, maybe you should contact BMW and ask them how they handle their customer service :)

@RusmackedVolvo Hah! It's on right now on CBCNN. I don't know if it's on CBC.com archieve. It's called Customer (Dis)Service.

this song still amuses me. sooo tempted to do a random cover, even though it would be strange. i can't even drive, and i don't own my own car. :P

[oskeisa]

:(

I guess you just got a defective car.

I have a V70 and an S60 and I never had any problems. My mercedes ML used to be in the shop every 2 months. Volvo seems good in contrast.

[Agno10]

No ideea, sorry. I recall only some wierd song I couldn't identify at first, then the host went on saying that's Swedish, it's on YT and further detailing your story.

[roadragecustoms]

Good luck!

I happen to really like Swedish cars. Shame that neither has really great reliability.

[AndrewNoNumbers]

@howsoonisnow1985 Bimmers are just as bad with reliability. Better service maybe.
