Default Reg: new to volvo and all its expenses

Hi

i have a volvo 2017, i purchased used one in aug 2020. the dealership has mentioned there is a problem with cyclinders. I got a quote of approx 1600$ For new cylinders. It was just check engine light on and then this and also they keep mentioning about treaded tires. I just know how to drive car and do not understand this. Is there a way that anyone on this forum tell me my alternate options or should i just resell this car. WhAt should i actually do since there is a 4000$ expense with cylinder and tires to change it.




i have uploaded the screenshot j recieved from dealer. Is there Anything i can do ?

Without further info, the new cylinder deal sounds like a piston ring recall. Do they mention that because your car is burning oil? The volvo engines were burning excess oil due to faulty piston ring design. Info on that recall: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/20...46443-9999.pdf

They are mentioning your tires because they are a wear item. When your tire tread (the thickness of your tire surface that makes contact with the road) gets too low, they become dangerous because you have less traction.

Whats the Check engine light code?

Also tires should not be costing you $2400.
