Update: Had this out to Spirit Volvo and they had their two senior technicians drive in it (first with me and then together). They immediately acknowledged the issue and have diagnosed an imminently dying electric motor which will need to be replaced.
Car is 4.5 years old. I'm expecting an offer to cover 50% of the cost but not sure if I'd be happy with that because every indication is that these hybrid systems were under-engineered from the start. Anyone got any thoughts on that?
