WE BROUGHT THE CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES TO COMPLAIN THAT NOT ONLY DID THE INSIDE OF THE CAR ALWAYS SMELL LIKE FUEL, BUT THE DRIVER AND ALL HER CLOTHES SMELLED LIKE FUEL. WE WERE TOLD THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR. I FIND IT IRONIC THAT YEARS AFTER THE FACT, VOLVO CONTACTS US TO TELL US THERE IS A FUEL PROBLEM. WE NO LONGER OWN THE CAR, NOR WOULD WE EVER BUY ANOTHER VOLVO AGAIN, DUE TO THE LACK OF CONCERN AND HELP WE RECEIVED WHEN OWNING THIS VEHICLE. WE TRIED SPEAKING TO VARIOUS EMPLOYEES AND SERVICE PERSONAL, BUT WE GOT NO WHERE. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TOOK VEHICLE IN QUESTION TO MY MECHANIC DUE TO STARTING ISSUE AND FUEL SMELL. HE DIAGNOSED A SIGNIFICANT FUEL LEAK DUE TO A CRACKED FLANGE ON THE FUEL PUMP. HE FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM FOR THIS EXACT MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR OF VOLVO. CALLED VOLVO AND THEY REJECTED REQUEST FOR RECALL REPAIR DUE TO VIN NUMBER NOT BEING INCLUDED IN RECALL. I BELIEVE THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO THE RECALL REGARDLESS OF THE VIN NUMBER BECAUSE IT HAS THE EXACT SAME DIAGNOSIS AS IS DESCRIBED BY THE RECALL. THE NOTION THAT A MAKER CAN EXCLUDE A VEHICLE WHICH EXHIBITS THE PROBLEMS TO BE FIXED BY A RECALL BASED ON EXTRANEOUS CRITERIA IS FUNDAMENTALLY FLAWED. THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND THERE IS A RECALL TO FIX THE SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE MAKE, MODEL AND YEAR IN QUESTION. THAT THE VEHICLE IS EXCLUDED BASED ON EXTRANEOUS CRITERIA IS RECKLESS REGARD FOR MY SAFETY AND POTENTIAL BYSTANDERS!

I AM A RESIDENT OF TEXAS. I JUST BOUGHT A 2002 VOLVO S60 ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO, AND I'VE NOTICED A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN AND AROUND CAR. THERE IS A LEAK IN THE FUEL PUMP AND WHEN CAR IS PARKED, FUEL FORMS A PUDDLE UNDER CAR. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE A CAR IN THIS CONDITION, BOTH FOR MYSELF BUT ALSO FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC. I SEARCHED ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND FOUND THE FOLLOWING RECALL INFORMATION FROM THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION WEBSITE: MAKE: VOLVO MODEL: S60 MODEL YEAR: 2002 MANUFACTURER: VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC. MFR'S REPORT DATE: DEC 17, 2009 NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 09V483000 NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE09039 COMPONENT: FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP RECALL STATES THAT AS REMEDY FOR THIS ISSUE: "DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE FUEL PUMP INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE, AND IF NECESSARY REPLACE THE FUEL PUMP WITH A PART OF A MODIFIED DESIGN. THIS SERVICE WILL BE PERFORMED FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON JANUARY 15, 2010. " HOWEVER, WHEN I CONTACTED ROGER BEASLEY VOLVO OF AUSTIN, TX, I WAS TOLD I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR TO THE TUNE OF $720.
