2013 VOLVO S60 Complaints

RECALL NOTICE SENT AND RECEIVED BY MYSELF. AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION BY THE DEALER. WHEN CAR BROUGHT FOR SERVICE ON SCHEDULED DATE, WAS TOLD THAT THE CORRECTIVE PART WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE, AND THERE WAS NO TIME FRAME FOR STOCK REPLACEMENT TO CORRECT THE THE RECALL ISSUE BY VOLVO. UNKNOWN WHEN THIS WOULD TAKE PLACE. NO CORRECTIVE ACTION RECEIVED BY THE DEALER OR VOLVO.

MY CAR STARTED MAKING THIS KNOCKING NOISE. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS COMPLETELY GONE. THE OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON. NOW I'M TOLD THE ENGINE IS GONE. WHEN I LOOKED UP MY MODEL AND YEAR IN COMPLAINTS IT WAS REPORTED THIS WAS A PROBLEM BUT A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED.

WE BELIEVED THE 2013 VOLVO S60 WAS LEAKING OIL BUT THE MECHANIC FROM LOCAL SERVICE STATION DID NOT FIND A LEAK. THE LOCAL MECHANIC CALLED BOSTON VOLVO SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VOLVO S60'S HAS PISTON RING PROBLEMS AND TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO BOSTON VOLVO FOR CONFIRMATION. BOSTON VOLVO CONFIRMED VEHICLE HAS THE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 VOLVO S60. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL WAS SEEPING INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CONSUME A MINIMUM OF 2 TO 3 QUARTS OF OIL DAILY. THE CONTACT HAD TO ADD 2 TO 3 QUARTS OF OIL PER DAY. THE CONTACT HAD CONTACTED CHERRY HILL VOLVO CARS (1810 RTE 70 W, CHERRY HILL, NJ 08002, (856) 665-4050) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT FAILURE COULD BE RELATED TO THE COILS OR THE PISTONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

THIS RELATES TO RECALL R10029 WHICH I WAS NOTIFIED OF LAST SUMMER. I RECEIVED A FOLLOW UP LETTER IN DECEMBER AND CALLED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE RECALL ADDRESSED ON JANUARY 18. WAS TOLD PARTS WILL NOT BEEN IN UNTIL MARCH AND THAT I SHOULD CALL BACK. SEEMS LIKE POOR CONCERN FO RTHIS SAFETY DEFECT.

THE CONTACT PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY WHERE HER HUSBAND CHECKED THE OIL LEVELS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE OIL PRESSURE WARNING WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED AND THE MECHANIC DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION FAILURE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2013 S60 VOLVO FOR 3.5 YEARS. ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, I STARTED NOTICING THAT MY CAR WAS BURNING/ CONSUMPTION AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. I GET MY OIL CHANGED ON THE RECOMMENDED SCHEDULE, BUT I ALWAYS HAVE TO ADD OIL BEFORE THE NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE. I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS THAT A RECALL WAS DONE FOR SOME CARS, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. IT ALSO APPEARS THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. PEOPLE PAY A LOT OF MONEY FOR THESE CARS AND TO HAVE A MAJOR COMPONENT FAILURE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU REVIEW AND EXPAND THIS RECALL INCLUDING MY CAR AND THE HUNDREDS OF CARS WITH THE SAME DEFECTS.

I RECENTLY HAD A RECALL ON A VOLVO FOR DOOR LATCHES. WHEN LOOKING AT OTHER RECALLS, I FOUND THAT THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT ON MY VEHICLE, INDICATING LOW OIL PRESSURE, WAS A RECALL ON A PRIOR YEAR, SAME MAKE AND MODEL. I DID FURTHER RESEARCH AND DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR HAD A POSSIBLE RECALL OF THE WRONG DATE OF MANUFACTURE. I WAS ASSURED BY VOLVO THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT AFFECTED; HOWEVER, IT IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUES, WAS THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL, SAYS IT WAS MADE IN THE SAME CITY, AND I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH THE TITLE ALONG WITH GETTING AN ORIGINAL DATE OF SELL FOR THE VEHICLE. I BOUGHT IT FROM A BUY HERE, PAY HERE PLACE, AND IT HAD AN YELLOW X ON THE INSIDE OF THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. I THINK IT WAS AFFECTED BY THE PRIOR RECALL AND THAT I CAN NOT GET ALL THE NEEDED RECALLS BECAUSE THE PRIOR MISPRINT OF THE YEAR WAS NEVER CORRECTED BEFORE IT WAS SOLD TO THE DEALER.

LACK OF WARNINGS ON LOW OIL PRESSURE. MY CAR GIVE NO OIL SIGNAL WARNING LIGHT ON WHEN CAR HAVE ZERO OIL IN IT. PHONE [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I RECEIVED TWO SAFETY RECALL NOTICES (MARCH AND APRIL) FOR RECALL R89978. "THE DOOR LATCHES CAN WEAKEN MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO LATCH THE DOOR OR WORSE DRIVE THE CAR BELIEVING THAT THE DOOR IS SECURELY CLOSED WHEN IT'S NOT." IN THE VOLVO RECALL LETTER, IT STATES TO CALL THE DEALER TO SCHEDULE THE REPAIR AT NO COST. IT'S ALMOST JUNE AND MY DEALER HAS NOT RECEIVED THE PARTS FROM VOLVO. THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHEN THEY'LL RECEIVE PARTS FROM VOLVO. THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE ACCESS TO AND I DON'T FEEL SAFE. *TR
