Consumer Description

ON A RECENT RAINY AFTERNOON I STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION IN MY 2004 V70, SUBJECTING MYSELF AND MY FAMILY TO A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WAS ABLE TO RESTART MY CAR, AND AFTER SEVERAL MORE STALL OUTS AND RESTARTS I WAS ABLE TO LIMP TO A NEARBY PARKING LOT WHERE I CALLED MY REPAIR SHOP TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED IN FOR REPAIR. MY MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAULTY FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR, ORDERED THE PART FROM THE LOCAL VOLVO DEALER AND REPAIRED MY CAR; THE TOTAL BILL, INCLUDING TOWING WAS $615. LATER THAT WEEK, MY HUSBAND LOOKED UP VEHICLE RECALLS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE AND FOUND RECALL #R181 WHICH EXACTLY DESCRIBED MY SITUATION. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY I WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THIS RECALL BEFORE MY CAR STALLED AND PUT ME AND MY FAMILY AT GREAT RISK. *TR
