ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE:ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECU/ECM)
- The defect
- Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo Trucks) is recalling certain 2023 Volvo VN vehicles. The engine control module (ECM) may experience an internal electrical short-circuit, causing the engine to stall.
- What it can cause
- An unexpected engine stall can increase the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Cummins will replace the ECM and perform a recalibration. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed September 29, 2022. Owners may contact Volvo Trucks' customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Volvo Trucks' number for this recall is RVXX2203.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 12 vehicles this is a small campaign: 90% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published are as large or larger. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2023, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2022, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Volvo vehicles have been recalled over the engine and engine cooling 19 times before this, most recently in April 2019 as 19V308000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 8 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V257000 (engine and engine cooling), 24V790000 (electrical system), 24V741000 (vehicle speed control), 23V793000 (vehicle speed control).
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Volvo Trucks North America with NHTSA on August 9, 2022 as campaign 22V605000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
