I WANT TO MAKE YOU AWARE OF A VERY SERIOUS CAR ACCIDENT THAT MY MOTHER HAD ON 9-5-18. SHE WAS DRIVING HER 2000 VOLVO S80 WHEN HER CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. SHE WAS NOT ABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR. MY MOM HAD HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE BUT THAT DID NOT STOP THE VEHICLE. UNFORTUNATELY, AT THAT POINT THE CAR WAS OUT OF CONTROL HITTING AND BANGING UP ALL THE CARS AROUND IT. THEN THE CAR FINALLY SMASHED INTO ANOTHER CAR STOPPING THE OUT OF CONTROL CAR. MY MOM WAS SERIOUSLY HURT AND TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. SHE HAD EMERGENCY SURGERY TO REPAIR HER AORTA THAT TORE FROM THE CRASH. SHE ALSO BROKE HER STERNUM. I AM DEVASTATED BY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY MOM. I FEEL THAT IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT YOU AND VOLVO ARE MADE AWARE OF THIS TRAGIC SITUATION THAT OCCURRED BY THIS VOLVO S80.

VEHICLE HAS THE SMELL OF FUEL. THE 2001-2005 MODELS HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS SAME ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE PLASTIC ON THE FUEL PUMP FLANGE CRACKING. MANY OWNERS OF THE 2000 MODELS ARE REPORTING THIS ISSUE. THE FUEL PUMP IS THE SAME USED ON THE 2000 YEAR MODEL AS THE 2001-2005 SO THE 2000 SHOULD BE PART OF THE RECALL ALSO. THE SMELL OF FUEL IS NOT JUST UNPLEASANT BUT DANGEROUS. I HAVE A 11 MONTH OLD SON WHO RIDES IN MY CAR AND IT WOULD BE TRAGIC IF SOMETHING HAPPENED TO MY FAMILY OR SOMEONE ELSE. YOU CAN SEARCH GOOGLE AND SEE MANY OTHER OWNERS REPORTING ISSUES IN THE 2000 MODEL VOLVO S80. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THANK YOU! *TR

MY DRIVER SEAT BELT JUST LOCKED UP AND I AM UNABLE TO GET IT TO RELEASE. ALL OF THE HOUSING INSIDE CAR APPEARS TO BE CRACKING. I HAVE HAD THE TWO FRONT WINDOWS REPAIRED OVER AND OVER AGAIN. AND NOW I CAN'T EVEN LET MY FRONT WINDOWS DOWN. I HAVE ALSO PAID TO HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY REPAIRED. NOT TO MENTION HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE O2 SENSORS. *TR

WITHIN THE PAST FEW DAYS, I'VE GOTTEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE FOUL SMELL OF GASOLINE LINGERING ON MY VEHICLE. SURE ENOUGH, I TAKE IT TO A MECHANIC AND THE FUEL PUMP IS VISIBLY MOIST ON THE EXTERIOR FROM AN OBVIOUS FUEL LEAKAGE. I RESEARCHED "VOLVO S80 FUEL PUMP" AND FOUND A RECALL IS IN PLACE. THE RECALL STARTS FROM 2001 MODELS AND RANGES UP TO 2005 MODELS AND IS DUE TO THE MATERIAL USED IN THE FUEL PUMP (RECALL CAMPAIGN 09V-483). SINCE MY VEHICLE IS A 2000 MODEL, MY LOCAL VOLVO DEALERSHIP SAID "I DO NOT MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS". MY CONCERN IS IF THE MATERIAL USED IN THE ASSEMBLY OF THE FUEL PUMP CHANGED FROM S80 2000 TO 2001 MODELS. I WOULD LIKE TO BE NOTIFIED WHAT MATERIAL WAS USED FOR S80 2000 MODELS VERSUS THE MATERIAL USED FOR S80 2001 MODELS AND MAKE SURE THAT THE MATERIAL FOR S80 2000 MODELS "MAY NOT DEVELOP CRACKS DUE TO EXPOSURE TO CERTAIN ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS AND VARYING FUEL QUALITY" AS DOES THE S80 2001 MATERIAL. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. *TR
