2004 Volvo S80 Fuel system Problems

“After noticing a very acute smell of gas I took the vehicle in for inspection. The mechanic advise that I had a fuel leak in my 2004 Volvo s 80 . Thats could have been a serious problem and that the car is not driveable in this condition.”

“There was a recall regrding fuel smell/fuel pump and/or fuel seal problem in 2010..my car is not regersted in the data base for the dealer to fix the fuel pump. How do I get a dealer vocher to take of this problem.”

“Shortly after moving to north carolina, I began to smell fuel. I first thought that it was the gas cap and replaced it. The smell continued to grow stronger and stronger, to the point I could not keep it parked in my garage in my townhome due to the smell of gas which would permeate the entire house. I also noticed during this time a substantial loss in gas mileage. I took the car in to have it looked at. The auto shop found that the fuel pump was leaking and showed me the back of the fuel tank which was covered in gas. …”

“Back in 2010 under the recall adv ,I took my car in to my Volvo dealer for the recall for fuel smell and they told me it was ok . The car then had around 90.000 miles or so, now I take my car back with strong fuel smell in 2015 170.000 miles and I reported to Volvo head quarters and they tell they will cover the pump only and not the labor to tune of 550.00 because the car has over 150000 miles on it and is past the recall extended warrinty , but I thought under recall p29075 that Volvo is lia for free replacement of parts and labor the first time I took it in. …”

“Strong odor of gas outside of car. Recall on similiar cars but not in this area. Known issue by Volvo but will not repair at no cost as it is outside of the 10 year extended warranty even though car does not have 150000 miles on. Fire hazard and should be for all cars of this year and make but offer little if any help.”
