SEATS:CRITICAL FASTENERS
- The defect
- Volvo Car USA, LLC (Volvo) is recalling certain 2026 XC60MHEV, 2018 and 2025 XC60 vehicles. The front seat bolts may have been improperly tightened, resulting in loose bolts.
- What it can cause
- A seat with loose bolts may not properly restrain an occupant during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
- What the dealer does
- Dealers will tighten the front seat bolts, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed December 17, 2025. Owners may contact Volvo's customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R10345. Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs) involved in this recall will be searchable on NHTSA.gov beginning December 5, 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 3 vehicles this is a small campaign: 97% 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 2018 to 2026, so the oldest vehicles on it were 7 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Volvo vehicles have been recalled over the seats 9 times before this, most recently in November 2024 as 24V869000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for all 3 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 79 complaints with NHTSA, 48 of them before this campaign was filed. 1 of those name the seats, the system this recall is about — a count of complaints, not of this defect. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in February 2018, 7 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.
