What NHTSA recorded

On certain passenger vehicles, the non-return valve may crack due to a poor weld causing a vacuum leak.

Possible consequence

If this occurs, more brake pedal force may be required to stop the vehicle and/or may experience a rough engine idle, which could result in a crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect, and if necessary, replace the vacuum hose. The recall began on november 29, 2004. Owners should contact volvo cars at 1-800-458-1552.
