What are the defects?
A manufacturing defect in the fuel pressure line may result in a fuel smell and/or fuel seepage. Since the fuel lone is working under a constant pressure, some seepage can, within a short period of time, potentially develop into a greater leakage.
What are the hazards?
In a worst case scenario, such leakage may, with the addition of an external ignition source, potentially lead to a fire in the right front wheel house area.
What should consumers do?
Contact your Volvo Dealer to organise inspection and, if necessary, replacement of the fuel pressure line.
