CarComplaints.com Notes: I have a complaint about the 2010 XC90: they're really hard to find used because no-one wants to give theirs up. I mean, why would they? This thing is as dependable as my seasonal allergies.

Engine stalled and shut down at highway speed of approximately 70 mph. Two consecutive tankfuls at about 1/4 tank or 135 miles to empty. Check engine light came on. Restarted engine and limped to nearest gas station. After fillup engine light cleared and it drove fine until down to approx a quarter tank again when it reoccurred.

Drove Volvo one day ago and while driving on rural highway road early morning in the dark, vehicle without warning totally shut down in middle of road and stalled out. Had to veer off road and coast on incline with not much momentum due to cars behind me. Was dangerous situation, but luckily got vehicle into small ditch off road. Had to be towed to garage as would not restart. Was advised by Volvo dealer after diagnostic that fuel pump was bad and part burned out inside it and needs replaced. About a little less then a year ago vehicle began to shake upon start and wanted to stall, was checked out and thought maybe bad gas as no further symptoms. Nothing happened after and car ran normally until incident 1 day ago.
