NOVEMBER 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain model year 2011, S80, S60, XC70 and XC60 vehicles. The software calibration for the fuel cut-off functionality in the engine control module (ECM) is too sensitive. Sudden engine stall could occur increasing the risk of a crash.

NOVEMBER 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain model year 2010 XC60 vehicles. The curtain air bags may have been misassembled during the manufacturing process. This may cause an air bag to not deploy or not deploy as intended. If the curtain air bag does not perform as intended in the event of a vehicle crash necessitating deployment of that air bag, it may not properly protect the occupant, increasing the risk of injuries. Dealers will inspect the left and right curtain air bag assembly and adjust if necessary. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin during November 2010.  . 10V-564

NOVEMBER 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain passenger vehicles equipped with power front passenger seats. The front seat rail's detection system was manufactured incorrectly and may permit the passenger to forward the seat beyond the intended maximum. Positioning of the seat beyond the intended maximum can cause increased risk of injury to the passenger in the event of a crash. Dealers will inspect the front passenger side seat rails for the presence of an "end stop" and repair the vehicles as necessary free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided an owner notification schedule.   10V-591

OCTOBER 2010 -- Volvo is recalling certain model year 2010-2011 S80, XC70, model year 2011 XC60 and model year 2010 V70 vehicles. There may be an intermittent fault in the driver's airbag clockspring wiring connector for the supplemental restraint system. In the event of a crash, the driver's frontal airbag may not deploy as intended or at all, and therefore will not be able to properly protect the driver, increasing the risk of injuries. Dealers will install a metal shim in the driver's air bag clockspring wiring connector. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on October 20, 2010.   10V-489

DECEMBER 2009 - Volvo is recalling model year 2010 XC60 vehicles. The fuel line rail cover that protects the fuel lines under the vehicle may not be properly attached exposing the fuel lines to damage. Damage to the fuel lines may result in a fuel leak which, in the presence of an ignition source, could result in a fire. Dealers will inspect the fuel line rail cover for proper attachment and reattach if necessary free of charge. The safety recall began on December 28, 2009.  09V-477

NOVEMBER 2009 -- Volvo is recalling model year 2010 XC60 vehicles. The driver's seat side cover panel (seat control panel) in certain driver's side impacts may release the attachment of the seatbelt to the seat frame. Should this condition occur in a crash the seatbelt may fail to properly restrain the occupant increasing the risk of injury. Dealers will modify the inside of the driver's seat side cover panel free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on or before December 15, 2009. 09V-445

SEPTEMBER 2009 -- Volvo is recalling model year 2008-2010 S80, model year 2009-2010 XC70 and model year XC60 vehicles. Under certain conditions the software within the central electronic module (CEM) may not send a signal to the fuel pump electronic module (PEM). This missing signal to the PEM inhibits the start of the fuel pump. The driver may be able to start the engine in spite of the fuel pump not being activated due to residual pressure in the fuel system. In some cases, the driver may be able to drive the vehicle a short distance at idle but then the engine may stall. If the vehicle stalls in certain conditions, a crash could occur. Dealers will download software to the vehicles' CEM free of charge. The recall began on September 30, 2009. Vehicles in dealer's inventory will be repaired prior to delivery.  09V-343
