Last Monday I was on the road and my check engine light came on. Called Volvo and was told to fiddle with gas cap and see what happens. Did this and no change. Drove home and brought the car to dealer on Cape Cod Friday morning.

Bad air pump, two oxygen sensors and check valve. All caused by check valve failure which allowed exhaust gas to enter air pump, intake manifold, etc.

I purchased the car last August from Lee Volvo in Wellesley MA. with 47000 miles. The car was a certified used car with warranty coverage until 74000 miles.

However, the dealer on the cape said that none of the parts listed above or the labor were covered under the warranty. The result: $1700 out of pocket. Have I been had?
