I own a 2004 Volvo XC70 that is experiencing the same fuel pump defect described in Recall R220 / NHTSA Campaign 09V483000 (fuel pump leak). My vehicle exhibits fuel system problems consistent with the recall description. However, my VIN is not included in the current recall population. When I contacted Volvo, I was told my case (ID #250827-000998) was escalated to corporate, but I was later informed that no goodwill assistance would be provided because my VIN is not covered. I specifically requested written confirmation of this determination. This defect poses a safety risk that aligns with the existing recall, and I believe additional vehicles outside the current VIN range may be affected. I am requesting that NHTSA review whether the recall should be expanded to include vehicles like mine.

My car kept getting a light for its coolant levels despite me filling it with proper coolant-I noticed a leak of coolant on the ground & upon getting it inspected from an independent service center, they told me the issue was my radiator so we got the part to fix it and a week later fixed the radiator and I didn’t get the light for coolant again. Although the independent service center told me that i actually had a fuel leakage due to my pump and described the issues I’ve been having with my car for a few months as signs to what problems this is causing, this meaning a funky fuel smell, my car struggling to fully turn on-needing multiple tries to actually fully turn on etc. this puts my safety at risk because fuel leakage is extremely dangerous for multiple reasons. Not inspected by manufacturer police or insurance reps. Other than the coolant light issue and the noticed continued leak after the coolant leakage was fixed. After looking into this issue online I found a recall notice

Faulty fuel pump causing leakage

I received a recall notice for the defective driver airbag. The nearest dealership is 10 hours away. I called Customer care and they said I would be responsible to transport my Volvo to the dealership in Billings Montana. The vehicle is a 2004 Volvo with 188k miles. Expense and travel is prohibitive to me. I am on a fixed income and I would worry about making a 20hr round trip in an older car. My desire is to gift this car to my granddaughter when she gets her driver's lic. I could not forgive myself if the driver's airbag deployed and the result could be serious injury or death. I contacted the Volvo Customer Care service and they said they could transport the car one way. can you help?

I've been waiting for a recall repair (Recall R10136: Driver Airbag) for 5 months and a local Volvo dealer said that they haven't received necessary parts for months. This is a matter of safety and Volvo should prioritize safety. First appointment with the local dealer was Jan 14 that was canceled by the dealer due to part shortage. Second appointment was on June 15 and it was canceled again by the dealer for the same reason.

I REQUESTED VOLVO CARS OF SEATTLE AND CUSTOMER CARE/VOLO TO HAVE REPAIRS DONE AS PER THE RECALL NOTICE OF 1214/2021 AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS REQUIRED ARE ON BACK ORDER AND I WILL BE NOTIFIED WHEN THEY COME IN. TO DATE I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICE FROM THE DEALER THAT THE PARTS ARE AVAILABLE. WHEN WILL PARTS BE AVAILABLE AND CAN THIS VEHICLE BE DRIVEN SAFELY BEFORE APPROPRIATE REPAIRS ARE MADE?

Fuel pump seal leak/ flange broke. Smelled gas, saw a puddle under the car. Upon fuel pump inspection a failed repair combined with original broken seal flange. We live in a state where the recall was not listed so our next step is to contact volvo.

I requested Danbury, CT Volvo to have the repairs done as per the recall notice on Jan 25 and was told the parts required are on back order and they do not know when the parts will be in. I would like to know if I am in danger by continuing to use the car before the repair can b made.

ALTHOUGH THE 'CRACKED FUEL PUMP FLANGE' RECALL SERVICE (VOLVO RECALL R220, NHTSA 09V-483) WAS PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE, THE VOLVO XC70 HAS AN ADDITIONAL 'FUEL SENDING UNIT' ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE CAR. THIS ADDITIONAL FUEL COMPONENT HAS A SIMILARLY FORMED FLANGE WHICH ALSO DEVELOPS A CRACK. EVEN THOUGH THE UNITS ARE SIMILARLY COMPOSED AND BOTH IN THE SAME ENVIRONMENT, I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE AUXILIARY FUEL SENDING UNIT IS NOT COVERED UNDER VOLVO RECALL 220. EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN THE FUEL PUMP RECALL, THE CRACK IN THE DRIVER'S SIDE FUEL SENDING UNIT ALLOWS GASOLINE TO CONSTANTLY OOZE THROUGH THE CRACK AND SLOWLY POUR ONTO THE GROUND AND PUDDLE. IF A FUEL PUMP FLANGE CRACK ALLOWING GASOLINE TO POUR ONTO THE GROUND WAS CAUSE FOR A RECALL, WHY IS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM IN THE AUXILIARY FUEL SENDING UNIT NOT ALSO A CAUSE FOR RECALL?

THE FUEL PUMP BEGAN LEAKING FUEL IN HOT WEATHER. IT LEAKS BOTH IF THE CAR IS BEING DRIVEN OR IF IT'S STATIONARY. THERE IS AN EXISTING RECALL THAT SEEMS TO COVER THIS ISSUE. IT IS REFERRED TO AS "RECALL 220" IN VOLVO'S DOCUMENTATION. THE ORIGINAL RECALL LIMITS THE AFFECTED VEHICLES TO ONES WHICH WERE ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IN SPECIFIC U.S. STATES. THIS IS ODDLY ARBITRARY CONSIDERING CARS CAN BE MOVED AROUND AND WARM WEATHER ISN'T EXCLUSIVE TO ANY SPECIFIC LOCATION. I'VE ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER AND THE NHTSA BUT AM IMMEDIATELY SHUT DOWN DUE TO MY VIN NOT BEING LISTED IN THEIR DATABASE. VOLVO ISSUED DOCUMENTATION TO THEIR SERVICE LOCATIONS ON HOW TO VISUALLY INSPECT A VEHICLE TO DETERMINE IF IT'S AFFECTED. I PERFORMED THOSE STEPS AND BELIEVE MY VEHICLE FITS THE GUIDELINES FOR THE RECALL.

THIS COMPLAINT IS FOR A 2004 VOLVO XC70. THIS CAR HAS SOME SERIOUS PROBLEMS WITH ITS VARIOUS MODULES. WHEN DRIVING ON A BUSY INTERSTATE HIGHWAY, THE CAR JERKED AS IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS SLIPPING. AFTER THIS A WARNING LIGHT STATING "BRAKE FAILURE; PULL OVER SAFELY" ILLUMINATED. CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY IN FAST-MOVING TRAFFIC. GOT CAR TO A PARKING LOT AND WAITED ABOUT 30 MINUTES. CAR STARTED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT HOME, ALTHOUGH BEING ABOUT 50 MILES AWAY. CAR WENT IN TO LIMP MORE AGAIN DURING DRIVE AND LOST ALL DASH INDICATORS, INCLUDING TURN SIGNALS, SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER. LIGHT FOR "CHECK ENGINE" WAS ILLUMINATED. AFTER MECHANIC RESET CODES, HE STATED THAT IT MIGHT BE THE ECM OR TCM. I SENT OFF THE ECM FOR DIAGNOSIS AND IT CAME BACK WITHOUT ANY ERRORS. I THEN SENT OFF THE TCM AND LEARNED THAT IT NEEDED REPAIR. AFTER RECEIVING THE REPAIRED TCM UNIT, WE RE-INSTALLED AND CAR DROVE FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. I TOOK THE CAR FOR A 6-HOUR ROUND TRIP DRIVE THIS PAST WEEKE
