This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
I own a 1996 Volvo 850 turbo. Recently the gas tank began to leak at the seam on the driver side next to exhaust heat shield I called Volvo and they told me that my for my VIN # there is no recall; on the internet there is a recall for the same vehicle gas storage issues. Exactly on the same side same problem, but since my VIN # does not coincide with their recall, I have to pay for it. I don't think that it is fair, that just because my VIN # is different from the recall, numbers, it still has the same problem as the models they are recalling. If they are recalling a certain model in this case the 850 model for specific defects, what difference does it make what VIN # it is, if it has the same problem on the recall. And a safety issue. If you can help with this, please let me know what I can do. Because the Volvo agent was not very helpful and rude. Bottom line was to bad for you.
