中央社斯德哥爾摩3日法新電）富豪汽車（Volvo）今天表示，將通知全歐洲客戶，有關一項引擎問題，可能會導致汽車突然加速，如果有必要，將召回受影響的車款。
富豪汽車發言人佛洛柏格（Per-Aake Froeberg）告訴法新社：「我們正致函全歐洲約30個市場大約15萬名客戶，告知我們正在調查與柴油引擎微粒過濾器油位增加有關的技術問題。」
佛洛柏格告訴法新社，如果調查結果顯示有必要，富豪將會考慮召回汽車檢修。
他表示，富豪目前只是「通知（客戶）有關問題，告訴他們檢查油位，總之每個人都該這麼做。」
他說：「問題是，引擎油可能進入燃燒室，成為額外燃料。這會維持或增加引擎速度。」
他表示，問題可能以不同方式顯現，「可能是你的腳離開油門，但汽車仍維持先前速度。某些個案中還會加速。」
在2009年底不同的客戶回報數起事故後，該問題才浮出檯面，涉及8種配備5缸柴油引擎、安裝柴油微粒過濾器的車款。（譯者：中央社鄭竹雅）

Volvo mulls recall over engine problem

Swedish car maker Volvo warned customers on Monday that it was considering a recall of eight models after the discovery of an engine problem that could cause their cars to suddenly accelerate.
"We are now sending out a letter to approximately 150,000 customers all over Europe, in approximately 30 markets, telling them that we are investigating a technical issue relating to increased oil levels in diesel engines with particle filters," Volvo cars spokesman Per-Åke Fröberg told AFP.
Fröberg told AFP the company would consider a recall if its investigation showed that such action was necessary.
But he added that for the time being Volvo was "informing (customers) of the problem and asking them to check out their oil levels, which everybody should do anyway."
"The problem is that engine oil may enter the combustion chamber and act as additional fuel. This leads to maintained or increased engine speed," Fröberg
explained.
He said the problem could manifest itself in different ways, "but it could be that you take your foot off the accelerator and the car keeps the same pace as before or it might, in some isolated cases, also increase the speed."
The problem was discovered after several incidents were reported by different customers in late 2009 and concerns eight car models that have a five cylinder diesel engine with a diesel particle filter.
Fröberg said the first notification letters would land in customer post boxes by the end of this week.
Those who see their oil level above the maximum indication should consult their Volvo dealer, he said.
In an interview with Swedish public radio, Fröberg said the problem could not be compared to the accelerator and brake defects that has caused auto giant Toyota to recall more than 10 million vehicles worldwide.
"First and foremost it's not the same problem that Toyota has had. The biggest difference is that customers have the possibility of making sure it doesn't happen by checking their oil level," he said.
Swedish-made Volvo spent a little more than 10 years as a Ford brand before being sold in March to China's Geely.
