I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM VOLVO OF NA REGARDING MY 2010 S-80. VOLVO SAID THEY WERE EXTENDING THE WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR THE STEERING GEAR TO 7 YEARS FROM 5 YEARS BECAUSE "THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR INSUFFICIENT SEALING IN THE STEERING GEAR. THIS CAN LEAD TO WATER OR MOISTURE INTRUSION, RESULTING IN INTERNAL CORROSION AND OIL SEEPAGE. THIS CONDITION CAN RESULT IN A LONG TERM GRADUAL INCREASE IN STEERING EFFORT AND NOISE." VOLVO DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM SINCE THEY DETERMINED IT WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE THE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AND DETERMINE IF A RECALL IS NECESSARY AS A SAFETY ISSUE--IT WOULD SEEM TO ME THAT ANYTHING AFFECTING THE ABILITY TO STEER THE CAR WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. THE LETTER FROM VOLVO WAS DATED DEC 17, 2010. *TR
