NOVEMBER 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain vehicles equipped with Garmin 760 portable Global Positioning System (GPS) units because the batteries on those units may overheat. An overheated battery could lead to a fire. Volvo advises owners to please stop using the Garmin portable GPS device immediately, and visit the Garmin website to determine if their unit is affected. The unit's battery will be replaced with a new battery and a spacer will be inserted on top of the battery next to the PCB. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on November 18, 2010. 10V-566

APRIL 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain model year 2010 XC90 vehicles. A leak may develop in the fuel line between the line and a connector. Fuel odor may be detected. A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source can lead to a fire at the right front wheel. Dealers will inspect the date code printed on the fuel line and replace the fuel pressure line if it falls within the recalled range free of charge. The recall is expected to begin during May 2010. 10V-147

DECEMBER 2009 - Volvo is recalling certain model year 2001-2005 S80, model year 2001-2004 V70, S60, XC70 and model year 2003-2005 XC90 vehicles sold in or registered in the states of Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, New Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia and the U.S. territories. When exposed to certain environmental conditions (hot climate and temperature cycling) over time and in combination with varying fuel quality, the fuel pump can develop cracks in the fuel pump flange. If the condition occurs vehicle owners may notice fuel smell and/or fuel leak which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect the fuel pump installed in the vehicle, and if necessary replace the fuel pump with a part of a modified design. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during January 2010. 09V-483

The earlier X5 models have fire history but I haven't seen anything on the F15.
