The National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration (NHTSA) provides 3
different ratings -
full-width frontal crash test
,
side impact crash test
, and
rollover resistance
. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

Description:
|
Certain passenger cars fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard no. 225, (child restraint anchorage systems). The second isofix guide was not installed in these vehicles and, in certain cases, the owner's manual isofix information is incorrect. This does not meet the requirements of the standard. Owners will receive a letter/package consisting of the second isofix guide with installation instructions, and in certain cases, the corrected owner's manual may be provided. If the owner wants to take their vehicle to a Volvo dealer for installation of the guide, it will be performed at no charge to the owner. Owner notification is expected to begin during August 2003. Owners should contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
|
|
Description:
|
On certain passenger vehicles, a combination of throttle positioning sensor irregularities, a dirty throttle housing, and/or inefficient software calibration may cause a warning lamp to light and the subsequent onset of limp home modes. This resulted in a high number of vehicles going into the limp home mode without need. Dealers will install the current software upgrade onto the involved vehicles. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule for this recall. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
|
|
Description:
|
On certain vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in the states of Arizona and Nevada, due to the combination of fuel quality and climate conditions, the fuel pump may, in certain cases, experience a reduced functionality. The most common symptoms would be fuel odor. Fuel leakage in the presence of an ignition source could result in a fire. Dealers will replace the fuel pump free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during April 2007. Owners may contact Volvo at 1-800-458-1552.

Summary:
|
Sweden's answer to the BMW 3 Series.
By Sam Moses, NewCarTestDrive.com
The S60 handles really well when you get it going, but getting it going depends greatly on which engine you choose. If you like lots of launch and passing power, avoid the base engine. |
|
Overview:
|
Volvo's S60 brings the Swedish firm's safety legacy and standards to consumers for whom the S40 is too small and the S80 too big. Not surprisingly, the S60 also fits between those models in price -- starting at $27,125 but running to more than $36,000 for a loaded S60 AWD. Volvo's S60 offers an alternative to BMW's 3 Series sedans. S60 combines the S80's stylish shape with all those safety features that have made Volvo famous over the years. Introduced for model year 2001, the S60 replaced the S70.
