CAR IS VOLVO S60 2004 TRIM 2.4 4 DOOR SEDAN FWD HAS 90317 MILES ON IT. FROM LAST FEW WEEKS WHEN I AM DRIVING VEHICLE IT STARTS LOSING POWER AND A WARNING COME TRY SLOW DOWN OR SHIFT UP AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED BLINKING. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES IN LAST 1 WEEK AS THE RESULT I NEED TO PULL MY CAR TO SAFE PLACE AND RESTART THAT AND THEN IT RUNS BETTER. THIS HAS REALLY PUT ME IN DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE ON ROAD. I AM SCARE OF DRIVING THE CAR IN MULTIPLE LANE ROADS IN OTHER LANES. I AM NOW DRIVING IT ON RIGHT LANE ONLY SO THAT KEEP MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE SAFE FOR QUICK PULL OVER IF NEEDED. CHECK ENGINE GIVES ME CODE P0171 AND P0300. I WENT ON LINE AND FOLLOWED ADVICE AND CHANGED SPARK PLUGS, IGNITION COILS AND ALSO OXYGEN SENSOR BUT NO DIFFERENCE. STILL CAR DID SAME THING WHEN I WAS DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY. I WENT ON LINE AND SAW THAT MANY PEOPLE HAVE THAT ISSUE WITH VOLVO S60 OF THIS YEAR AND MODEL AND STRUGGLING. I THINK THIS IS SOME VOLVO S 60 2004 MODEL RECALL ISSUE AS IT IS CREATING ACCIDENTAL HAZARD TO THE OWNER OF THE CAR AND THE OTHER TRAFFIC. DR TAKYAR

IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND STEPPED ON THE ACCELERATOR AS TRAFFIC MOVED AGAIN, THERE WAS NO RESPONSE TO MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE FUEL TANK, WHICH I HAD JUST FILLED 10 MILES BEFORE, SHOWED AS EMPTY ON THE FUEL GAGE. I WAS VERY, VERY SLOWLY ROLLING FORWARD WITH RESIDUAL MOMENTUM AND MY STEERING WASN'T WORKING. THERE WAS JUST ENOUGH PLAY IN THE WHEEL AND FORWARD MOMENTUM TO AIM AND ARRIVE AT THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. THIS WAS ON RTE 156 IN MONTEREY COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, WHERE VERY DANGEROUS ACCIDENTS HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. CAR HAD TO BE TOWED AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE FAILURE. IT WAS OUTRAGEOUSLY DANGEROUS AND I WAS ALONE WITH MY 11-YEAR-OLD CHILD. SO FRIGHTENING!!!
