I just had a full 120,000 mile tuneup and timing belt replaced about 10 days ago. Two days later I noticed the smell of gas and a day after that I noticed my car was leaking about a half quart of oil per day. I took my car to the nearest Volvo mechanic, which is not the same dealership I did the service at (Bill Kidd's Volvo in Timonium, MD). The new Volvo mechanic (Scandinavian Auto in Rockville, MD) is claiming I need a new fuel pump and will not be able to see why my oil is leaking until they do this service for safety reasons. When I had the tuneup done at Bill Kidd's, they had replaced fuel pipe. Now I am stuck here as to what I should do. Can someone please help me out? Of course, I believe that Bill Kidd's must be responsible for the improper installation of some parts for all of this to happen within two days of my getting the car back! I have invested over $2,000 in repairs, so I just need to figure out what is reasonable for this work.

Bill Kidd's Volvo is fully responsible for any and all work they performed DO NOT pay someone else to fix their shotty work and you shouldn't be expected to pay one red cent for their incompetence

it should be under warranty the work they did. take the oil dipstick out and smell it see if you smell gas. ifnot the fuel pump isnt leaking. will it crank if it will get the hell away from there just as quick as you can. take it back or have the ones who did the work tow it back to the shop. make them make it good or sue their asses.
