NHTSA recall 10V591000
Seats · Volvo Car USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Affects vehicles equipped with power front passenger seats. The front seat rail's detection system was manufactured incorrectly and may permit the passenger to forward the seat beyond the intended maximum.
Why it matters: Positioning of the seat beyond the intended maximum can cause increased risk of injury to the passenger in the event of a crash.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the front power seat stops for both front seats for the presence of an "end stop" and repair the vehicles as necessary free of charge. The safety recall began on December 23, 2010.
