The contact owns a 2004 Volvo S40. While driving approximately 30 mph, the contact stated that the check engine warning light illuminated when the vehicle suddenly stalled without warning. The failure was similar to NHTSA campaign id number: 08V033000 (fuel system, gasoline:delivery:fuel pump). The dealer refused to repair the defective component. The manufacturer informed the contact that they will only replace the component after it failed although the vehicle may stall while driving. The vehicle was taken to a local mechanic who notified the contact that they needed to replace the fuel pump and performed the repairs; however, the repair did not correct the failure. The local mechanic stated that they needed to replace the pump electric module and the vehicle was awaiting repairs. The current mileage was 105,000 and the failure mileage was 95,000.
