2012 Volvo S60 recalled for possible problem with fuel-pump software

Volvo is recalling almost 7,600 S60 sedans from the 2012 model year for a potential fuel-pump software problem with the five-cylinder engine that could lead to hesitation or a possible stall.

The cars affected were built from Nov. 18, 2010, to May 5, 2011.

Volvo will contact affected owners, and dealers will upgrade the engine-control software, which Volvo says will cure the problem. Owners should expect the recall to begin on June 17. Any questions for the company should go to the hotline at (201) 768-7300.

The 2012 Volvo S60 uses a 2.5-liter engine producing 250 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. The base price with destination is $31,850.
