Volvo has announced that they are recalling certain models of the 2008 through 2010 S80, 2009 through 2010 XC70 and 2010 XC60 vehicles. They stated that under certain conditions the software within the central electronic module (CEM) may not send a signal to the fuel pump electronic module (PEM). This missing signal to the PEM inhibits the start of the fuel pump. The driver may be able to start the engine in spite of the fuel pump not being activated due residual pressure in the fuel system. In some cases, the driver may be able to drive the vehicle a short distance at idle but then the engine may stall.
If the vehicle stalls in certain conditions, a crash could occur. Dealers will download software to the vehicles CEM free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before September 30, 2009. Vehicles in dealers inventory will be repaired prior to delivery. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552.
