Defect

Volvo Cars of N.A., LLC (Volvo) is recalling certain 2008-2016 V70 and XC70, 2007-2016 S80, 2011-2018 S60 and V60, 2016-2018 S60 Cross Country, 2014-2020 S60L, 2009-2015 S80L, 2009-2016 XC60 and 2015-2018 V60 Cross Country vehicles. The flexible steel cable that connects the seat belt to the front outboard seating positions may fatigue over time, causing the seat belt to not secure the occupant in the event of a crash.

Consequence

An unsecured occupant has an increased risk of injury in the event of a crash.

Corrective Action

Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the seat belt anchor cable for both front seats. Interim notices informing owners of the safety risk were mailed August 28, 2020. Owners will receive a second notice when the remedy becomes available. Remedy parts are anticipated to be available late November 2020. Owners may contact Volvo customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo's number for this recall is R10029.
