NHTSA recall 21V273000
Electrical System · Volvo Car USA, LLC
Details
What's wrong: Liquid or condensation on the rear seat control display may cause the front passenger seat to move back as far as possible.
Why it matters: The rear passenger may become trapped by the front seat without the ability to cancel the seat's movement, increasing the risk of injury.
The fix: Volvo car will notify owners, and dealers will update the rear seat control display software, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed July 14, 2021.
