About These NHTSA Complaints:
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 was driving down the highway and my vehicle completely shut down and the steering locked. I was able to put on the emergency signals and the big rigs behind me blew their horns. They were getting closer to me because I was decelerating at a rate that would have resulted in a colission. Fortunately I was able to coast into an emergency lane while they went whipping past me. The Volvo service manager stated that he had heard of a similar situation before. In an email to me he stated that "the pressure sensor was giving a faults reading, of excessive fuel pressure. When the pem saw the faults reading, it cut the fuel to the engine as it thought it was way over pressurized." I feel very fortunate that nobody was severally injured or killed.
