6 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 07/23/2013

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!.

9 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 08/27/2012

Began to notice strong fuel smell inside and outside the vehicle. Also noticed that starting the vehicle when engine is cold became more difficult. Researched various forums and NHTSA and discovered that Volvo has had 2 recalls for fuel pumps. My vehicle exhibited same symptoms as detailed in both NHTSA recalls. Called Volvo at 800-458-1552 as instructed in the NHTSA recall notice. Informed the representative that vehicle exhibited the symptoms detailed in the recall notice. I was informed that my vehicle VIN number was not part of recall. Also contacted local Volvo dealer regarding recall notice. Dealer would diagnose problem - if part of the recall, they would replace. Dealer called back, informed me that my vehicle was not part of recall. I cancelled appointment for diagnosis. Another local repair shop specializing in european vehicles verified that fuel pump has cracks and is leaking fuel. A full recall to include all VIN's should be issued. The fact that there have been two previous recalls for the same issue shows that there is a systemic flaw with this part.

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.

12 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 06/28/2010

I've had my car all of 4 months and I started to notice when it got really hot outside (summer) and when I went to start my car it would stall as if it was having a hard time starting up. Long story short I take it in to the dealer, they run a diagnostics test an tell me there is a crack in my fuel pump. I currently live in pennsylvania which is not one of the states listed for the fuel pump recall. I highly believe my car had a defective fuel pump because in the spring time, when it wasn't so hot my car was running fine. The Volvo dealer ship charged me $98. 11/hr to run a diagnostics test which came to $102. 83. Then on top of that they charged me $795 + tax for the parts and labor to replace my fuel pump after finding there was a crack in it. Everyone keeps telling me that my fuel pump is not on the recall but it has the same exact symptoms as all other Volvo cars that are listed on the recall. I'm trying to research how I could find out how these people know if my fuel pump was recalled or not. I have twin 2 year old girls that I had in my car all a while it was having this unknown issue. This is not safe at all and could of caused us harm. Luckily my father is car Smart and informed me what the possible issue could be.
