“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. …”
