Details

What's wrong: The product identification labels were printed with the incorrect manufacture year. Thus, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 cfr part 567, "certification regulation."

Why it matters: With an incorrect date of manufacture on the certification label, the vehicle owner may not be to determine if they are affected by future vehicle recalls, increasing their risk of a crash of injury.

The fix: Volvo has quarantined the affected vehicles and will install correct labels prior to sale. The recall began during March 2013. Owner notification letters will not be sent.
