This car is subject to NHTSA Recall Number 26V103, manufacturer's recall number R10362. I learned about the recall on February 23 via a Reuters article, but received nothing from Volvo. In follow-up with Volvo I was told on February 25 via email that there was no recall on my car. After some digging, I found through the NHTSA site that the recall did apply to my car. When Volvo corporate finally got their story right with prodding from my local dealer, I instructed to reduce charging to 70% and not to charge in or near my home or other flammable material, like trees. I have received a notice of recall a few weeks later from Volvo. After multiple escalations, and nearly 4 months without any timeframe for repair of my car, I have initiated a lemon law claim with Volvo. My complaint is that Volvo (1) sold me a car last July that is now limited to 70% of the range I expected, and presents a serious safety risk to my home and my family, (2) failed to communicate with me or my dealer about this serious risk for weeks, and (3) they have not repaired my car in a timely manner.
