VOLVO XC V70 2002 OCEAN RACE EDITION HAS DEVELOPED A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL AFTER DRIVING. THERE IS NO 1) LEAKAGE UNDER VEHICLE, 2) CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, OR 3) APPARENT REDUCTION IN MILEAGE OR PERFORMANCE. I ALSO REPLACED THE GAS CAP, BUT NOTHING CHANGED. WE KEEP OUR VOLVO IN THE GARAGE UNDER OUR HOUSE AND THE GASOLINE SMELL HAS BECOME SO BAD THAT WE ARE NERVOUS ABOUT LEAVING IT THERE AT NIGHT SINCE THE UPSTAIRS BEGINS TO SMELL LIKE GASOLINE. WE DO NOT KNOW IF WE ARE CREATING A REAL SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE OF THIS CAR? IN RESEARCHING 2002 VOLVO V70 XC WAGONS I FOUND THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT VOLVO FUEL PUMP RECALL IN 2009 FOR THIS MODEL AND YEAR...BUT APPARENTLY ONLY IF THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN IN WARMER CLIMATES?? WE WERE NEVER INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND DO NOT KNOW WHY SINCE WE DROVE THIS CAR BACK AND FORTH TO FL FOR YEARS AFTER THIS. NOT SURE WHY WE DID NOT QUALIFY? NONE OF OUR OTHER VOLVOS HAVE EVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. ANY WAY, WE ARE NOW BEING ADVISED THE FUEL PUMP MUST BE REPLACED AND DO NOT KNOW HOW BIG A SAFETY CONCERN THIS ISSUE IS UNDERNEATH OUR HOUSE. ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND/OR RESPONSE TO OUR CONCERN ARE APPRECIATED.

FUEL PUMP CRACKED, SLOW LEAK ON TO GAS TANK CAUSING EXTREME FUMES, MYSELF, 5 MONTH OLD GRANDDAUGHTER AND HER MOTHER WERE SICK FROM THESTRONG FUMES. I AFTER THAT TRIP I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED A FIRE AND WE ALL WOULD HAVE GONE UP IN FLAMES. THIS PUMP IS UNDER THE REAR SEAT WHERE THE TWO PASSENGERS WHERE SITTING. ON MARCH 22, 2014, THE THREE OF US WENT TO ARRUNDEL MILLS MALL CLOSE TO BALTIMORE ON THE WAY HOME TO ALEXANDRIA VA., WE SMELT STRONG GAS FUMES. EVEN WITH ALL THE WINDOWS AND SUNROOF OPEN THE FUMES DID NOT DISSIPATE. I CALLED DON BEYER VOLVO AND FAIRFAX VOLVO AND BOTH STATED THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED SO THIS REPLACEMENT IS NOT COVERED. I WAS NOT AWARE THAT RECALL NOTICES EXPIRED! I WAS TOLD IF I HAD BROUGHT THE CAR IN WHEN THERE WAS NO PROBLEM THEY WOULD NOT HAVE REPLACED THE PUMP EVEN FOR SAFETY REASONS. SO WHAT GOOD IS A RECALL THERE SHOULD BE A STATEMENT ON RECALLS " YOU MUST KEEP UP YOUR WARRANTY UPDATED ON ALL VEHICLE PARTS". BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED IN 2012, 10 YEARS FROM 2002, I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 2004, THE RECALL CAME OUT IN 2009, I WAS STILLUNDER WARRANTY AT THAT TIME. IF I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TO GET REPAIRED, BOTH VOLVO DEALERS SERVICE DEPARTMENTS STATED THEY WOULD NOT HAVE REPLACED THE PART BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AT THAT TIME. THIS IS THE ONLY VEHICLE I OWN MY DAUGHTER CANNOT DRIVE AND MY GRANDDAUGHTER IS ONLY 5 MOS. OLD, WILL VOLVO, DON BEYER, OR FAIRFAX VOLVO PAY FOR THREE FUNERAL EXPENSES, IS THAT WHAT IT WILL TAKE. *TR

I OWN A 2002 VOLVO XC70 CROSS COUNTRY. WHILE DRIVING, AND ESPECIALLY DURING DOWN SHIFTS, THE VEHICLE WOULD LOSE ITS CONNECTION TO THE DRIVE SHAFT, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO REV UP AND THE VEHICLE TO JERK AS IT GRABBED BACK INTO GEAR. THE JERKING HAS CONSEQUENTLY CAUSED ME TO BREAK MY MOTOR MOUNTS. A LOCAL MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER AGREED THAT THIS WAS THE ONLY SOLUTION. ALL SOFTWARE UPDATES HAVE BEEN DONE. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT BEEN CONTACTED, AS THEY ARE A CHINESE COMPANY. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS AROUND 85,000. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 125,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. CATASTROPHIC FAILURE. NOT FAIR TO THE OWNER. MANUFACTURER SHOULD CORRECT THIS COMMON, EXPENSIVE PROBLEM. *TR

MY WIFE DROVE OUR CAR A 2002 VOLVO XC70 STATION WAGON FROM OUR SECOND HOME APPROXIMATELY TEN MILES TO SAN LUIS OBISPO CALIF. FOR SHOPPING. SHE PARKED THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT AND WENT INTO A STORE. SHE CAME BACK OUT, STARTED THE CAR AND BACKED OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE. WHEN SHE PUT THE TRANSMISSION LEVER IN DRIVE THE ENGINE WENT TO FULL RPM AND LURCHED FORWARD, SHE APPLIED THE BRAKES WHICH COULD NOT HOLD THE HIGH ENGINE SPEED PULLING THE CAR FORWARD. SHE QUICKLY SHUT THE ENGINE OFF WITH THE KEY AVOIDING A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ON AND THERE WERE NO OBJECTS I.E., FLOOR MATS OR OTHER ITEMS, NEAR THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THANK GOD MY WIFE OR NO ONE ELSE WAS INJURED OR KILLED. I AM A RETIRED FIRE CAPTAIN AND PRIVATE FIRE INVESTIGATOR WITH 30+ EXPERIENCE. THIS SCARED THE HELL OUT OF US AND WE DO NOT TRUST THE CAR. I PREVIOUSLY TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND REPORTED THE TRANSMISSION 'CLUNKING' THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I DRIVE IT TILL IT FAILED BECAUSE OF THE HIGH COSTS INVOLVED. NOW, I AM READING REPORTS OF COIL SPRING FAILURES AND BEARING PROBLEMS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR SPECIFICALLY FOR THE SAFETY FEATURES; NOW I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AND EXTREMELY CONCERNED. *TR

I NOTICED ONE DAY THAT THERE WAS SUDDENLY A "PAUSE" WHEN THE LOWER AUTOMATIC GEARS WERE SHIFTING, PERHAPS FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR DURING ACCELERATION. IF MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR "LURCHED" FORWARD WITH A STARTLING, LOUD THUD WHEN THE GEAR SEEMED TO ENGAGE. IF I RECOGNIZED THIS WAS HAPPENING AND LIFTED MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR, THE CAR HOVERED IN BETWEEN GEARS FOR A SECOND OR TWO THEN CHANGED GEARS. SCARY! *TR

RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2002 VOLVO V70 XC70 AND AM HAVING SERIOUS ISSUES WITH GEARS IN THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION NOT SHIFTING SMOOTHLY AND MAINTAINING CONSTANT GEARS AT CONSTANT SPEEDS. HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT THE CAR MAY NEED A TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE WEB FROM OTHER 2002 OWNERS. WHY HAS A RECALL NOT BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS? WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO FLIP THE BILL FOR CRUMMY MANUFACTURING? *TR

MY WIFE NARROWLY MISSED HAVING AN ACCIDENT ON MARCH 31, 2010 AND DOING MORE DAMAGE TO OUR 2002 XC70 VOLVO WITH 53,770 MILES (BOUGHT NEW). SHE WAS STOPPING WHEN SHE HEARD STRANGE NOISES FROM THE FRONT LEFT SIDE. THE DRIVER FRONT SHOCK ABSORBER SPRING BROKE JUST AS SHE STOPPED. SHE COULD HAVE HAD A BAD ACCIDENT HAD SHE BEEN DRIVING AT EXPRESSWAY OR NORMAL SPEED. DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE SHOCK ABSORBER SPRING AFTER THE CAR WAS FLATBED TRANSPORTED TO THEM BUT THEY, VOLVO USA, AND VOLVO SWEDEN SAID "YOU PAY ALL COSTS - THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE PART IS NOT COVERED." THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN SALT WATER SUBMERGED, OR HIT POTHOLES THAT DAMAGED THE TIRE OR RIM. IT IS DRIVEN ONLY ON PAVED , NON WASHBOARD ROADS A CAR SUDDENLY PULLING TO ONE SIDE CAN AND HAS CAUSED MILD INJURY TO DEATH ACCIDENTS. IF THE WIFE DIDN'T THROW THE SPRING OUT - IT IS STILL AVAILABLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2002 VOLVO XC70, 110K MILES WITH AN ETM DEFECT THAT THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT REPLACE. ACCORDING TO YOUR WEBSITE IT IS COVERED UNDER THE NEW 10 YEAR/ 200K MILES WARRANTY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IT ON THAT DISPLACES THE ETM CODE. I TOOK IT HOWARD ORLOFF IN CHICAGO THIS MORNING AND THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE PART UNDER WARRANTY. THE CAR ACCELERATES AND DECELERATES WHILE DRIVING - IT IS NOT SAFE. *TR

SLIPPING TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING ON STRAIGHT AWAYS AND UP HILLS ON BOTH OF MY VOLVO'S PURCHASED AS CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE'S. THE FIRST VEHICLE (2002 VOLVO S60 AWD) WAS TRADED IN BUT THE SECOND ONE (2002 VOLVO XC70 AWD) WAS REPAIRED - BOTH AFTER 2 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP AND WITH WARRANTIES THAT HAD JUST EXPIRED. THE SLIPPING TRANSMISSION OCCURRED CONSTANTLY WHILE DRIVING AND WOULD CAUSE THE CAR TO SLAM INTO GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING AND PROPEL THE CAR FORWARD ONCE THE TRANSMISSION ENGAGED. I TOOK THE VOLVO TO THE SERVICE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THERE WASN'T AN ISSUE THEN WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK AGAIN THEY EXPLAINED THAT I WOULD NEED A NEW TRANSMISSION. WHEN I TOOK THE XC 70 TO A CERTIFIED VOLVO TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST (NOT THE DEALER) WE TESTED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND THE TEST CAME BACK AS POSITIVELY SHOWING THE EXISTENCE OF RADIATOR FLUID WHICH HAD LEAKED INTO THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THE VOLVO SPECIALIST EXPLAINED TO ME THAT IN RECENT YEARS VOLVO HAD MADE A CHANGE TO HOW THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS COOLED. AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THIS DESIGN CHANGE TO AWD VEHICLES (ALL AWD'S) THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS COOLED BY FLOWING THROUGH A PIPE DIRECTLY ATTACHED TO THE RADIATOR. OVER TIME THE RADIATOR FLUID CAUSED THE COOLING PIPE TO CORRODE AND AS A RESULT RADIATOR FLUID WAS LEAKING INTO THE TRANSMISSION FLUID CAUSING THE TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. BESIDES REBUILDING THE TRANSMISSION THE RADIATOR ALSO REQUIRED REPLACEMENT BECAUSE WE HAD TO FIX THE LEAK AT THE SOURCE OR IT WOULD CONTINUE TO HAPPEN. EVEN THOUGH THE REPAIRS WERE MADE THE PROBLEM COULD PRESENT ITSELF AGAIN OVER TIME. IT TOOK ONLY 80,000 FOR MY VOLVO XC70'S TRANSMISSION TO FAIL. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW AND ACCORDING TO THE MULTIPLE TRANSMISSION SPECIALIST I SPOKE WITH THEY ARE SEEING THIS PROBLEM MORE AND MORE WITH ALL AWD VOLVO'S FROM 2000 TO PRESENT DAY MODELS. *TR

OUR 2002 VOLVO XC70 HAS A TENDENCY TO JERK ?VIOLENTLY? FORWARD ?SHIFT FLARE? AND HARSH SHIFTING PROBLEMS AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS WITHOUT WARNING AND HAS DONE SO ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE RIDING WITH OUR FAMILY; FRIGHTENING EVERYONE IN THE VEHICLE AND POTENTIALLY CAUSING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THE FREQUENCY HAS INCREASED OVER THE PAST YEAR TO THE POINT WE ARE UNABLE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE WITHOUT SERIOUS RISK OF INJURY OR ACCIDENT. WE WERE DENIED WARRANTY SERVICE BY A SOUTH ATLANTA VOLVO DEALER (THAT HAS SINCE GONE OUT OF BUSINESS) AND BY VOLVO NORTH AMERICA DURING THE WARRANTY PERIOD. THERE ARE LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF INTERNET POSTINGS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS. NAMELY, THERE ARE SEVERAL PRIMARY ISSUES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE ECU BRAIN OF THE CAR MALFUNCTIONING, SOFTWARE MALFUNCTIONS AND TCM MALFUNCTIONING. THE JERKING IS VERY FREIGHTING AND COULD SEND ONE TO THE HOSPITAL WITH SEVERE NECK AND NERVE INJURY. WE HAVE CONTACTED VOLVO NORTH AMERICA, VOLVO WORLDWIDE AND PARENT COMPANY FORD MOTORS. THE VEHICLE HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY CONTRACT THAT WAS BREACHED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALER AND BY VOLVO NORTH AMERICA. *TR
