Volvo S60, V70: Fuel System
Affects Volvo S60, V70 · 2003–2004 — about 3K vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, the fuel pressure sensor may at times transmit an incorrect signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM). If the signal is outside of the pre-programmed allowable limits, a diagnostic trouble code may be set and the check engine light will come on. An engine misfire may occur, reducing available engine torque and possibly causing the engine to stall. In certain traffic situations this could cause an unsafe situation and possibly a crash. Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel pressure sensor.
