EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TURN SIGNAL
Manufacturer
VOLVO CARS OF NA, INC.
What Happened
The front turn signal bulbs in your vehicle are the lights that flash when you signal left or right. In some cases, the bulb might not be making good contact with the socket, which could stop the turn signal from working.
Risk if Unfixed
If the front turn signal doesn't work, you might not be able to signal to other drivers that you're turning. This could lead to a crash, especially if another driver is relying on your turn signal to change lanes or turn.
Free Fix
Your dealer will replace the front turn signal bulbs and sockets with new ones, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible to ensure your turn signals are working properly.
