The brake module software will be updated over-the-air (OTA) or by a dealer, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 15, 2025. Owners may contact Volvo Car's customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo Car's number for this recall is R10329.
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 11,469 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 80% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2020 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 5 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Volvo vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 11 times before this, most recently in October 2024 as 24V791000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 2 of the 25 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 51 complaints with NHTSA, 25 of them before this campaign was filed. 1 of those name the service brakes, hydraulic, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in October 2022, 2 years before this filing.

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.
