NHTSA complaint: 2004 VOLVO S60 — FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
ON SEPTEMBER 18 I WAS TRAVELING DOWN INTERSTATE 10 WHEN MY 2004 VOLVO S60 COMPLETELY STOPPED RUNNING WHILE GOING 70 MPH. I WAS UNABLE TO GET THE CAR OUT OF THE TRAFFIC (NO POWER TO DRIVE TO THE SHOULDER). MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY USELESS. I CALLED 911 AND ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO GET HELP BEFORE I WAS HIT (I WAS UNABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE DUE TO MOVING TRAFFIC ON EITHER SIDE OF ME). AFTER 50 MINUTES I WAS HIT IN THE REAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BERGERON VOLVO. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL PUMP HAD FAILED. THERE WAS NO WARNING AND THE VEHICLE HAD JUST BEEN IN FOR SERVICE 1 MONTH BEFORE. IT ONLY HAS 24,000 MILES. *JB
