EIT Forum Auto, the Romanian importer of Swedish Volvo cars, recalled in service 30 Volvo S40 and V50 models to replace some electronic modules as part of a global recall project. Company representatives said that the operation started a couple of days ago and a quarter of the requested cars were in service by now already.

The importer underlined that the operation is a preventive one and the modules will be changed even if they have a problem or not.

The recall operation is part of a global recall project announced by Volvo officials that includes some 82,000 cars produced in 2004 and 2006, models S40 and V50. Among mentioned markets that host a significant number of Volvo cars are: USA, Sweden, Germany, Japan, Canada, Russia, France.

The recall procedure is quite frequent among car producers and is considered a living proof that producers think about the safety of the drivers. Thus, the procedure will improve the models even if they are broken or not.
