I LEASE A 2014 VOLVO S60. THE VEHICLE CAME EQUIPPED WITH CONTINENTAL TIRES, SIZE 235/45-R17-97V. THE DOT # IS AF8P-NIH6. THE ODOMETER HAS 8, 550 MILES. I DRIVE THE VEHICLE VERY CAREFULLY AND CONSERVATIVELY. I HAVE NOT HIT ANY CURBS, CARSTOPS OR POTHOLES. ON JANUARY 7TH I REPLACED THE LEFT FRONT TIRE DUE TO A BUBBLE IN THE SIDEWALL. TODAY I NOTICED A BUBBLE IN THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE TIRE. I BELIEVE THESE BUBBLES ARE DUE TO A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND NOT BECAUSE I HIT SOMETHING WITH THE TIRES. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS COMPLAINT.

Jun 30, 2020

Remedy: Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat belt anchor cable for both front seats. The recall began December 10, 2020. Owners may contact Volvo customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R10029.

Consequence & remedy
