1 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 01/01/2018

Fuel leaking from tank (most likely top of tank), when fuel pump is operating. Upon some search, I found that there was a recall for this problem for the S60 from 2001 to 2009. But for some reason my VIN is not covered. Seems like there's some loophole that they managed to use, why not all vins should be covered. Its clearly a very dangerous failure.

2 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 01/23/2015

Car interior smelled of gasoline and gasoline leaking into passenger compartment and underneath car. Took car to aaa repair facility where multiple leaks and malfunctions discovered and repaired. Low mileage for year of car and no accidents. Fuel level sensor assembly cracked and leaking - not the gasket - the fuel level sensor plastic housing failed. Fuel pump module assembly leaking.

3 Other Fuel System Pump problem

Failure Date: 01/31/2014

Some models had a recall notice for a cracked leaking fuel pump (pe09039). This exact thing happened to our car. Volvo refuses to cover the vehicle under the recall because it was not sold in one of the states listed. The problem is exactly as described in the recall. This doesn't seem right as it the same safety issue. Please let me know if there is any further action that can be taken.
