More problems than the Cummins 2250 and Detroit DD’s?

I'm running a 2011 D13 and have 1,127,000 km on it. I consider mine to actually be not too bad. I've replaced injectors twice (once on warranty), engine harness once, DEF pump twice (second time it took out the chassis harness by leaking all over it), the odd sensor here and there.

A friend has a 2014 D13 with 875,000 km and since it went off warranty at 805,000 km he has spent between $30,000 and $40,000 trying to keep it on the road. He has replace the injectors 4 maybe 5 times, much of the aftertreatment, and has had many "software glitches". He will be in the market for a new truck at the end of the year and unless this truck settles down he will be looking at anything but Volvo.

The biggest problem with Volvo is they treat their VCAD software like it's national defense secrets, very expensive for a private shop to get even a copy that will only read codes and do the most basic of maintenance that requires a computer. That and the tens of thousands of dollars of tools that are required to work on the Swedish nightmare, the dealers have things pretty much wrapped up.
