What owners report most
Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaints, by component
Electrical system
34 reports
“This has happened multiple times, confirmed by the dealer that it is a know issue with no fix. While driving down the road, the digital dashboard goes completely blank. No speedometer, no fuel guage, nothing. Very dangerous when driving to not know the speed that you are travelling. Also, all audio cuts out - no blinker signal sounds, no radio, etc. Less concerning is the infotainment system going completely black and silent as well - radio, maps, climate control. There have been multiple recalls performed but the dealer but none of them has fixed the issue. This must be a MJAOR safety concern when the dash does completely blank while traveling 65mph down the highway.”
Forward collision avoidance
14 reports2 crashes
“At the end of a downhill cloverleaf coming coming on and off a highway, the car slowed to a crawl but would not stop. It was going slowly as if "creeping" like when in B mode but was not in B mode. The brakes would not stop it. I was able to shift gears from Drive to N to P but no response, car continued to creep forward until it gently bumped into the back of an 18 wheeler. There was no collision alarm at the time. I turned the car on and off, and powering down seemed to re set the issue, but the collision alarm went off like 10 minutes later when there was nothing to set it off (seemed like it was just delayed). No error code came up, nothing. I submitted my claim to Volvo, esp since there are similar recalls so I thought it was a known thing, but apparently not reported on my exact make and model (there were not very many made). I did not know there was damage to my vehicle, and the truck driver and myself did not even get out, he didn't feel me, and I assumed the bumper just bumped him so no police report. This was an intermittant failure and after I re booted the vehicle I slowly drove home after brakes seemed to be working after power on/off. I did not…”

“Turn signal audio not present (lights working. No audio from radio, phone , collision warnings rear cross traffic warnings, door ajar audio warnings. Resetting the display fixes the problem. However, the issue returns the next day.”
