Re: RECALL (Finally). S70 99

The NHTSA has posted information about 101. Information that should be includes is that owners will receive notification as to when Volvo is ready to replace the sockets and bulbs on your car. The mailings will be spread out over 3 months so the parts can be sent over 3 months, if everyone shows up at the dealer prior to being told to then there will be no parts.

Just a side note, the majority of the turn signals still worked, they just blinked double time, not exactly correct, but they did still work, so some of the safety hype is just that hype.

The problem once identifyed has been worked on for about 2 years, bulb design was changed, the base made wider, the material changed, and now a total change of design, that should really work, so it's not like it has been ignored, just not fixed as fast as some might expect.
