NHTSA recall 07V563000
Visibility · Volvo Car USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: On certain sport utility vehicles, under certain conditions, the climate control module (ccm) may receive a 'shut-down signal' from the engine control module (ECM) after ignition key insertion. If this condition occurs, the climate control functions will not be available (including the defroster) during that driving cycle.
Why it matters: Inoperative defrosters under inclement weather conditions could cause impaired visibility which has the potential to result in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.
The fix: The ECM software will be upgraded. The recall began on January 28, 2008.
