Seats And Restraints#2023649December 7, 2023
233 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the bolts that attach the second-row seat belt buckles may not have been properly tightened. As a result, the seat belts could loosen or detach in a crash. Safety Risk: A seat belt that detaches in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. Corrective Actions: Volvo will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to inspect and, if necessary, tighten the second-row seat belt buckle attachment bolts.
Other#2021238April 23, 2021
30 units affected
Issue: On certain XC90 Excellence models, the rear seat control display may not work properly if the touch screen gets wet. This could cause the front passenger seat to move to the fully rearward position, even after you stop touching it. If the touch screen stays wet, you may not be able to move the seat forward again. Safety Risk: This could result in an injury for rear seat passengers. Corrective Actions: Volvo will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealership to update the software for rear seat control display.
Accessories#2018618November 9, 2018
1,461 units affected
On certain vehicles, the Telematics and Driver Support Systems may not function as designed due to a software error. In the event of a crash, this could mean that the Emergency Assist system would not alert Volvo and provide the GPS coordinates of the vehicle. This could create a risk of no response from emergency services. Correction: Dealers will update vehicle software.
