- The defect
- Volvo Car USA, LLC (Volvo) is recalling certain 2025 EX90 vehicles. A spindle nut may detach from the Power Operated Tailgate (POT) drive units, causing the tailgate to suddenly drop.
- What it can cause
- A tailgate that suddenly drops can hit a person, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Owners are advised not to use the POT function until the repair is completed. Dealers will replace both POT drive units. Owner letters were mailed November 24, 2025. Owners may contact Volvo's customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R10342. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning October 7, 2025.
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 1,119 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 60% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers one model year, 2025, and the defect was reported to NHTSA in 2025, at or before the oldest model year it covers — as current as a recall gets.
Volvo vehicles have been recalled over the structure 10 times before this, most recently in March 2022 as 22V115000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 1 model year the campaign names. Their owners have filed 67 complaints with NHTSA, 6 of them before this campaign was filed. 1 of those name the structure, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect.
The vehicles on this campaign carry 2 other recalls published here: 25V071000 (exterior lighting), 24V869000 (seats).
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 September 30, 2025 as campaign 25V654000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
