What This Recall Means

Component

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL

What Happened

The driver's air bag in your V70 or XC70 is a safety feature that deploys in a crash to cushion your head and chest. Over time, the propellant inside the bag can break down, making it unstable.

Risk if Unfixed

If the air bag inflator fails, it could explode and send sharp metal fragments flying towards the driver or other passengers, causing severe injury or even death.

How to Get This Fixed

Free Fix

Your Volvo dealer will replace the faulty air bag with a new one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice to ensure your safety on the road.
