The 2003 Volvo V70 has two recalls, the more serious being a driver's airbag inflator that can explode during deployment and send metal fragments into the cabin, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The second recall involves the fuel pressure sensor, which can send an incorrect signal to the engine's computer and trigger the check engine light. When this happens, the engine may misfire, lose power, or stall.
At a glance
What can fail
The driver's air bag inflator can explode when deploying. This happens because the propellant degrades after long-term exposure to high humidity, high temperatures, and repeated temperature changes.
What the fix does
Dealers will replace the driver's air bag at no cost to you.
