I went out to start my car for work and it would not start like it was out of but I have a half tank of gas in it but for some reason it sounds like the fuel pump/module is not working.

Tl-the contact owns a 2005 Volvo S40. The contact stated that while driving on several occasions, the check engine warning light illuminated and the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was taken to the dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the fuel pump electronic module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not included in NHTSA campaign number: 08v033000 (fuel system, gasoline). The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 40,000. Ah.
My car was making a pumping noise from the rear of the car and the check engine light would come on. I took it to a local mechanic and they informed me of the pem recall/extended warranty. I took the car to the Volvo dealership to have repaired and they said the pem was not the problem and that it was a fuel pressure sensor and possibly the fuel pump itself. I declined the repair and exactly 2 weeks later the car failed to start. I had it towed to my local mechanic since I live 70 miles from the Volvo dealership. My mechanic replaced and moved the pem to a new location, which was exactly what the recall/extended warranty was for! the dealership gave me a form for reimbursement from Volvo, but Volvo refused to pay the $634 that I paid for the repair. They first tried to say it was not a "genuine Volvo part" but I verified it was. Then they said since I declined the repair for the fuel pressure sensor, they could not pay! the reimbursement form is for the pem and has nothing to do with the fuel pressure sensor. So this pem became faulty in a 2 week period? I think not! obviously Volvo does not stand behind their cars and I feel like they lied to me.
The fuel control module failed, causing an immediate stall. There is a TSB concerning the placement of this module. It is to be moved from the engine compartment to behind the back seat. Water got into the module causing it to melt down!!!.
