Details

What's wrong: The nuts that secure the front wipers may not have been sufficiently tightened, possibly causing the wipers to not function properly.

Why it matters: The risk of the front wiper arms nut fixation to loosen and not holding the arm in correct position, the wiper function could be reduced and vision could be impaired, thus increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Volvo car will notify owners, and dealers will tighten the nuts holding the front windshield wiper arms in position, free of charge. The recall began September 29, 2020.
