Volvo recalling 59,000 cars across 40 markets over engine fault

Swedish car maker Volvo is recalling 59,000 cars across 40 markets over a fault that can temporarily shut down the engine. The software fault is restricted to five cylinder diesels from the 60 and 70 series constructed from the middle of last year. Group spokesman Stefan Elfstrom said, the fault could be unpleasant for drivers. He, however, said there had been no recorded accidents as a result. The glitch can shut down the engine and electrical system while the car is in motion, but Elfstrom said, they would then both restart immediately.
