NHTSA campaign 25V908000 · reported December 23, 2025 · Volvo Car USA, LLC · 413,151 vehicles potentially affected

The problem
Volvo Car USA, LLC (Volvo Car) is recalling certain 2021-2025 XC40, 2022 V90, 2022-2024 C40BEV, 2022-2025 S90, V90CC, XC60, 2023-2025 S60, V60, V60CC, XC90, and 2025 EC40, and EX40 vehicles.
