Description of the problem	I own a 2001 volvo s40. In early april 2005, my vehicle was diagnosed as being in need of oxygen sensors, which was the reason for my "check engine" to be activated. The problem is that my car had approximately 25,000 miles on it. As of mid october 2005, the "check engine" light has been reactivated and the vehicle was recently diagnosed at the volvo dealership as needing new oxygen sensors-again. Currently, my car has 32,000 miles and is going on its third set of oxygen sensors. The parts and labor that are required to fix the problem are truly expensive. All my complaints to volvo have fallen on deaf ears. I truly believe that this problem is a result of poor engineering skills, or worse yet, intelligent engineering that is intended to keep the customers spending on costly repairs. *jb

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
