Vehicle Systems Involved in Recalls for 2021 Volvo V90

Distribution of official safety recall campaigns across automotive subsystem domains

Vehicle Subsystem 2 campaigns

Air Bags & Restraints

Domain Mapping Methodology: A single NHTSA recall campaign may involve more than one vehicle subsystem (such as electrical wiring affecting fuel delivery), so domain totals can exceed the total number of unique recall campaigns. Complaint and recall counts are grouped by broad vehicle system; component co-occurrence does not establish that an individual owner complaint is related to a specific recall campaign.

NHTSA Campaign #21V682000 Air Bags & Restraints
Affected Component: SEAT BELTS:FRONT:RETRACTOR
NHTSA Report Date: September 1, 2021
Safety Defect Summary:

The seat belt automatic locking retractors may deactivate early, which can prevent the child restraint system from securing properly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection."

Safety Risk / Consequence:

An unsecured child restraint system can increase the risk of injury during a crash.
