Car was purchased on 5/31/2016, in less than 4 months I experienced repeated stalls while accelerating. The car would rev high and the rpms would increase. During this time the car was immobilized. This occurred mid-flight while accelerating. On September 23, I took the car to northpoint Volvo to find out what was wrong. I was told nothing showed up in the vehicle computer and that they adjusted the software. Ok. I have received all of my scheduled maintenance at 10K and 20K miles, with the last one being performed June 14, 2017. Over the last month the car has stalled twice mid-flight. The car's rpms increased and the gas pedal would not move the car. I press the gas pedal and the car engine revs, and the car does not move. I cannot get it out of traffic. That is very dangerous and life threatening. The last incident was terrifying as a I was almost rammed from behind by a pickup truck. All of these incidents have happened while the car has been in motion - normally upon acceleration. I actually fear for my safety in this car which is crazy because Volvo salespeople sell the safety features of the car above everything. I noted all of this in a survey to Volvo months ago and never received any contact from Volvo - I assume they don't care. Because this has happened to me multiple times on a new car, I feel compelled to report it to the ntsb.
