I HAVE SERIOUS QUESTIONS ABOUT HOW A SMALL BUMP THAT SCRAPED THE FRONT TIRE, BUT DID NOT EVEN SCRAPE THE EXTERIOR OF THE CAR COULD CAUSE THE ENTIRE REAR END SUSPENSION AND STABILIZATION BAR TO HAVE TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED. ARE THERE STRUCTURAL PROBLEMS WITH THE VOLVO XC60S THAT COULD CASES THIS? THE CAR WASN'T MOVING MORE THAN 10 MPH AS IT WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION FROM A STANDSTILL AT A LIGHT IN A CITY WHEN THE RIGHT TIRE BUMPED SOMETHING IN THE ROAD. IT WAS GOING STRAIGHT.

20V378000 · Seat Belts:front

Jun 30, 2020

Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC (Volvo) is recalling certain 2008-2016 V70 and XC70, 2007-2016 S80, 2011-2018 S60 and V60, 2016-2018 S60 Cross Country, 2014-2020 S60L, 2009-2015 S80L, 2009-2016 XC60 and 2015-2018 V60 Cross Country vehicles. The flexible steel cable that connects the seat belt to the front outboard seating positions may fatigue over time, causing the seat belt to not secure the occupant in the event of a crash.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: An unsecured occupant has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.

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.
