AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
- The defect
- Volvo Car USA, LLC. (Volvo Car) is recalling certain 2019-2024 S60 vehicles. The passenger air bag may not be secured properly, which can cause the air bag to deploy improperly.
- What it can cause
- An air bag that does not deploy properly in a crash increases the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts securing the passenger air bag, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 5, 2024. Owners may contact Volvo Car customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo Car's number for this recall is R10254.
- 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 346 vehicles this is a small campaign: 53% 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 model years 2019 to 2024, so the oldest vehicles on it were 4 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Volvo vehicles have been recalled over the air bags 15 times before this, most recently in June 2023 as 23V403000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 5 of the 6 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 79 complaints with NHTSA, 32 of them before this campaign was filed. 3 of those name the air bags, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in April 2019, 4 years before this filing.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 9 other recalls published here, the newest being: 25V908000 (back over prevention), 25V282000 (back over prevention), 25V179000 (electrical system), 23V188000 (electrical system).
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 Car USA, LLC with NHTSA on November 21, 2023 as campaign 23V780000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
