2013 Volvo S60

For the last year or so I have been experiencing a leak on the passenger side coming from the windshield. It is quite noticeable after heavy rain and even going through the carwash. The water has damaged the interior material right behind the sun visor. As a result, I glued it a few times but of course it is not staying because of the continual rain. I also have to keep a Damp Rid underneath the passenger seat because the car smells damp and musky after it has rained and being closed up. On one occasion, my passenger had been put at risk because they got soaked really bad during a rain storm and became ill. Unfortunately, there was nothing I could do about it and as you can imagine, my passenger was extremely upset.

RECALL NOTICE SENT AND RECEIVED BY MYSELF. AN APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR CORRECTIVE ACTION BY THE DEALER. WHEN CAR BROUGHT FOR SERVICE ON SCHEDULED DATE, WAS TOLD THAT THE CORRECTIVE PART WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE, AND THERE WAS NO TIME FRAME FOR STOCK REPLACEMENT TO CORRECT THE THE RECALL ISSUE BY VOLVO. UNKNOWN WHEN THIS WOULD TAKE PLACE. NO CORRECTIVE ACTION RECEIVED BY THE DEALER OR VOLVO.

THE LOCAL MECHANIC CALLED BOSTON VOLVO SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VOLVO S60'S HAS PISTON RING PROBLEMS AND TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO BOSTON VOLVO FOR CONFIRMATION.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2013 S60 VOLVO FOR 3.5 YEARS. ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, I STARTED NOTICING THAT MY CAR WAS BURNING/ CONSUMPTION AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. I GET MY OIL CHANGED ON THE RECOMMENDED SCHEDULE, BUT I ALWAYS HAVE TO ADD OIL BEFORE THE NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE. I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS THAT A RECALL WAS DONE FOR SOME CARS, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. IT ALSO APPEARS THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. PEOPLE PAY A LOT OF MONEY FOR THESE CARS AND TO HAVE A MAJOR COMPONENT FAILURE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU REVIEW AND EXPAND THIS RECALL INCLUDING MY CAR AND THE HUNDREDS OF CARS WITH THE SAME DEFECTS.
