Issue: On certain vehicles, the nuts that attach the windshield wiper arms may not have been tightened properly. This could cause the wipers to slip and not clear the windshield properly. Safety Risk: Windshield wipers that do not work properly could affect a driver's visibility. This could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: Volvo will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to tighten the nuts on the windshield wiper arms.
Structure#2019030January 21, 2019
3,816 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles equipped with a power operated tailgate, the tailgate lifting arms could freeze and fail. This could create noise and cause the tailgate to stop working. It could also cause the tailgate lifting arms to separate. Safety Risk: If the tailgate arms separate, a spring may be projected rearward and create a risk of injury. Corrective Action: The company will notify owners by mail. Owners will be advised to take their vehicle to a dealer for replacement of the tailgate lifting arms.
