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...
I AM ORIGINAL OWNER. CAR HAS 135K MILES. WHILE DRIVING, DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT WARMER ALMOST STARTED FIRE. I SMELLED AND SAW SMOKE FROM SIDE OF SEAT. MELTED SIDE OF SEAT AND LEFT HOLE. I PULLED OVER AND PUT OUT BEFORE ANY FLAMES.
THIS REPORT IS FOR MY 2004 VOLVO FOR WHICH I AM ORIGINAL OWNER AND ONLY HAS 35500 MILES. MY SEAT CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING YESTERDAY. I GOT THE FIRE OUT AND AM TOLD THAT THE SEAT WARMER DRIVER SIDE IS WHAT CAUGHT ON FIRE. IS THERE A RECALL FOR THIS OR DOES IT COME UNDER WARRANTY PERHAPS.
SEAT HEATER SHORTED OUT CAUSING FIRE IN SEAT FOAM RUBBER BURNING THROUGH SEAT COVER.
FRONT SEAT DESIGN IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND PUSHES IN DRIVERS BACK AT A POINT THAT MAKES THE BACK HURT. I CANNOT DRIVE FOR MORE THAN 30 MINUTES DUE TO THE PAIN. THIS ALSO HAPPENS TO MY HUSBAND, WHO IS MUCH TALLER, SO I ASSUME IT IS HAPPENING TO MANY DRIVERS. THERE ARE THREE SECTIONS ON THE SEAT BACK, AND THE MIDDLE SECTION STICKS OUT AT THE POINT YOUR BACK WANTS TO STICK OUT, NOT GET PUSHED IN, MAKING IT VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THE DEALER LOOKED AT IT AND SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE SEAT.
