2004 Volvo S60 fuel system problems

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Starting Sunday November 27 my car started dripping gasoline on the floor, on the driver side near the rear wheel. Immediately I took it to Volvo dealer Wynne in Hampton, VA. The service specialist told me there was not any existing recall for that issue and let me go. That night I put under the leak a flat pan. That night I collected one gallon in about 8 hours. I called Volvo cars USA [XXX] explained me the car have been fixed for the campaign #09V483000 in September 14, 2010. I own the car since 2015. I asked her if the recall should be possible to do it again at no cost for me, because it falls under Safety due to the fact the car may get in fire due to the leak of gas. She asked me to go back again to Wynne Volvo dealer and tell to the service specialist that I talked to them and if they wouldn't repair my car I could open a case with Volvo Cars USA. The service specialist told me I could leave the car for inspection, but I would be responsible for at least $180 to get and estimate, but never said that they would fix it under the safety recall number 09V483000 for vehicles sold or registered in the states with hot climate like Virginia. The recall started in January 15, 2010. It covers the fuel pump that can develop cracks in the fuel pump flange. The technician said the repair they did under the recall was replacing an O-Ring gasket only not the fuel pump. The person I talked to in Service is [XXX] with Title Service Advisor. Phone number [XXX]. I called again today Wednesday November 30, 2022 to Volvo Cars USA they said they can not promise to wave the repair because they need first that I pay $180 for a car diagnostic of the issue. They would probably accept to pay part of the total charge but they would be doing it at good will. I don't have $180 to pay upfront for a safety recall that it didn't last but only 12 years. The Safety recall is valid as long as the car is in service, it doesn't matter if I am or not the first owner. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA)

NHTSA complaint #11437725 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR AS TRAFFIC MOVED AGAIN, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE FUEL TANK, WHICH I HAD JUST FILLED 10 MILES BEFORE, SHOWED AS EMPTY ON THE FUEL GAGE. I WAS VERY, VERY SLOWLY ROLLING FORWARD WITH RESIDUAL MOMENTUM AND MY STEERING WASN'T WORKING. THERE WAS JUST ENOUGH PLAY IN THE WHEEL AND FORWARD MOMENTUM TO AIM AND ARRIVE AT THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. THIS WAS ON RTE 156 IN MONTEREY COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, WHERE VERY DANGEROUS ACCIDENTS HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE FAILURE. IT WAS OUTRAGEOUSLY DANGEROUS AND I WAS ALONE WITH MY 11-YEAR-OLD CHILD. SO FRIGHTENING!!!

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I JUST RECENTLY WENT TO A DEALER FOR A GAS FUEL LEAK. THEY NOTICED A CRACK IN THE HOLDER. THE MECHANIC ALSO ASKED ME TO CHECK FOR A RECALL BEFORE FIXING DUE TO THIS BEING A COMMON PROBLEM WITH SOME VOLVOS. I AM ALSO NOTICING THERE IS A POWERSTEERING LEAKAGE SOMEWHERE BECAUSE IM CONSTANTLY PUTTING IN POWERSTEERING. PLEASE TAKE MY COMPLAINT IN CONSIDERATION DUE TO IT BEING LIFE THREATING AND I HAVE CHILDREN WHO I HAVE TO CARRY AROUND IN THAT VEHICLE. IF ITS A DEFECTIVE EQUITMENT ON VOLVO IM ASKING FOR IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT. FOR SAFETY

I HAD MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE AT MY LOCAL VOLVO REPAIR SHOP AND ONE OF THE ITEMS I HAD THEM INVESTIGATE WAS A FUEL SMELL. THEY TOLD ME THEY FOUND A CRACK AT FUEL PUMP SENDER RH SIDE. THEY MENTIONED THAT THEY THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS SINCE THEY HAVE SEEN IT SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT MY VOLVO DEALER. I JUST LOOKED ONLINE AND FOUND WHAT THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT BUT IT DOES NOT LIST THE STATE WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND RESIDE? I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THE REPAIR SHOP DID CONTACT A LOCAL DEALER FOR ME AND THE DEALER TOLD THEM THAT THERE WAS NOT A RECALL? I GUESS I WILL CONTACT SOME OTHER LOCAL DEALERS THIS WEEK AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY? SEEMS LIKE COLORADO SHOULD HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THIS RECALL EVERY STATE NEAR US IS PART OF IT. IF I CANT GET THIS REPAIRED UNDER THE RECALL WHAT SHOULD I DO TO MAKE IT HAPPEN?

NHTSA complaint #10574239 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR LOST POWER WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND DISPLAYED THE MESSAGE "REDUCED ENGINE PERFORMANCE". DEALER INDICATED IT WAS A CRACKED INTERCOOLER HOSE AND THAT CAUSED THE ISSUE. IT WAS REPLACE AND AFTER ABOUT TWO MONTHS THE SAME SYMPTOMS HAPPENED. IT WAS THEN DIAGNOSED AS A BAD ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY. THAT WAS REPLACED AND THE SAME SYMPTOMS HAPPENED WITHIN TWO MONTHS AGAIN. THE CAR NOW DOES NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 10 MPH. THE NEXT DIAGNOSIS WAS TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE IT STALL OR DECELERATE FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH NO NOTICE. IT IS VERY SIMILAR TO A RECALL FOR MODEL YEARS UP TO 2002.

DRIVING HOME AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR (YEAH), I WAS TURNING INTO A PARKING LOT, SO MY SPEED WAS DESCENDING AND THE CAR STALLED. I WROTE IT OFF AS MY FAULT BECAUSE IT DID NOT HAPPEN AGAIN UNTIL 3 MONTHS LATER. WITHIN THE PAST 3 WEEKS THE CAR HAS STALLED WHILE IN MOTION APPROX. 6 TIMES. VOLVO STATED THE RECALLED PART FOR THIS ISSUE WAS REPLACED IN 2009. I NOTIFIED THE DEALER AND HAVE A APPOINTMENT FOR REPAIR, AT MY EXPENSE BECAUSE IT WAS ALREADY REPLACED. MEANWHILE I WILL NOT DRIVE THE CAR DUE TO THE LACK OF SAFETY. WISH I WOULD HAVE RESEARCHED THE CAR MODEL BEFORE PURCHASE.

NHTSA complaint #10531592 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

THE CAR HAD FUEL PUMP REPLACED ON 06/30/11 AND AGAIN (UNDER PARTS WARRANTY) AFTER BEING TOWED ON 05/14/13. ON JUNE 10, 2013 THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALER AGAIN WITH FUEL SUPPLY ISSUES. AFTER MUCH ANALYSIS, IT WAS CONCLUDED THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE PRICE QUOTED FOR THE PART WAS $2447 AND LABOR $1400. THE FUEL PUMP APPARENTLY HAS AN INNER CONNECTOR SEAL (OR RING AND CLIP) THAT IS INTEGRAL TO THE TANK (CANNOT BE REPLACE SEPARATELY) THAT WAS POPPING LOOSE UNDER PRESSURE. AFTER MUCH DEBATE WITH VOLVO OF NORTH AMERICA, THEY GOT APPROVAL TO GIVE ME THE PART AT HALF PRICE--STILL $1223 PLUS AROUND $900 LABOR. IN DISCUSSING THIS WITH THE SHOP FOREMAN, HE HAD TALKED TO VOLVO REGIONAL PEOPLE ONE THE LOOKOUT FOR FLAWS. THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, AND ALTHOUGH IT WAS RARE IT HAD HAPPENED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO METAL TALKS THAT ARE 'CALIFORNIA' SPECS. ALTHOUGH VOLVO IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, THEY HAVE NOT NOTIFIED OWNERS OR DONE A RECALL BUT ARE REQUIRING THOSE WITH THE DEFECTIVE PART TO DISCOVER IT AND PAY FOR REPAIRS ON THEIR OWN. I THINK VOLVO SHOULD REFUND MY REPAIR COSTS AND NOTIFY OTHER OWNERS WHO HAVE THE SAME FUEL TANK.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

I OWN A 2004 VOLVO S60. I RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AFTER MY MECHANIC TOLD ME MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS DUE TO THIS RECALL. VOLVO SAYS THERE IS NO SUCH RECALL AT FIRST, BUT UPON CALLING THE CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER I FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS. HOWEVER, THEY SAY IT IS VIN SPECIFIC AND THAT MINE IS NOT COVERED. MY MECHANIC SAYS THAT THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF, FOR THIS PROBLEM CAN CAUSE MY ENGINE TO STALL OUT AT ANYTIME AND CAUSE MY STEERING WHEEL TO JERK AROUND ON THE HIGHWAY. TO ME, THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM, SOUNDS LIKE THAT IT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL ME ON THE ROAD. HOW CAN SOMETHING THAT CAN BE THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS NOT BE VOLVOS RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX? JUST BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER IS DIFFERENT DOES NOT MEAN THE PROBLEM IS ANY LESS SERIOUS, THOUGH VOLVO SEEMS TO THINK IT IS.
