      <description>The engine consumes an excessive amount of oil, requiring the addition of about one quart every few hundred miles. There are no visible external leaks, and the issue appears to be due to internal engine components such as piston rings allowing oil into the combustion chamber. This poses a risk of engine damage and loss of power. The problem has been observed consistently and confirmed by a repair </description>

      <description>Me and my partners safety was put at risk when the vehicle’s high pressure fuel pump went out, shut the car down, and left us stranded in the middle of two lane traffic. What was scarier was how the vehicle couldn’t be manually overridden to shift into neutral to push the vehicle to safety away from oncoming traffic, since the gear is electronic. The vehicle isn’t that old and that high on mileage</description>

Have to manually adjust it to point back up approximately every 500 miles. Suspect it happens as you drive over bumps.

      <description>This car has an oil consumption problem but Volvo advises it will not repair.  Other, similar models have similar oil consumption problems that are the subject of recall.  This was also subject of class action lawsuit  We have had to spend hundreds out of pocket to repair.  Why isn't this model year in the recall?  Other years - same engine - before and after this are subject of recall?</description>
