Warranty does not equal reliability and dealing with dealers on nagging issues can be miserable. It sounds like you need a backup car or a very reliable one. It doesn't seem reliable, safe, and spirited go together much. I'm concerned about VW (safety and reliability) and Volvo (reliability). Zero interest doesn't help the depreciation hit. VW even has zero interest for 60 months on CPO but the cars don't seem as solid as the 9-5. It seems there's a market void, especially for wagons. I've tested nearly all options while the 9-5 inches closer to some end. Anything is going to be very different, have a host of other issues, and likely cost a good deal more even if going way down market to something like a Rav4 for reliability.
