Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I had the very very strong gas smell with my 2001 s60 t5 a month ago both during driving and parking. turned out to be a leaking fuel on the top of tank which cause kind of wet at bottom of car around the tank. floor dripping also can be seen after several hours parking. recently, several cold engine stat became harder. volvo diagnosed as failure of fuel pump which needs to be replaced(poorly designed plastic pump housing). i scared to park my volvo in the garage because of potential fire. i heard this problem happened in hundreds volvos in arizona and nevada which caused safety recall. i'm wondering why the same safety problem can't result in recall in other states. human life should be the same value as volvo builders. i hope volvo builder must respect customer life instead of just selling. *tr
