What Happened
The Garmin GPS unit in your vehicle is the part that helps you navigate. It's made by Garmin, not Volvo, and it has a battery that could overheat.
Risk if Unfixed
If the battery overheats, it could catch fire, which could cause damage to your vehicle or even lead to a fire in the vehicle.
Free Fix
Your Volvo dealer won't be performing the repair, but you should stop using the Garmin GPS unit immediately and visit the Garmin website to see if it's affected. If it is, Garmin will replace the battery and add a spacer at no cost to you.

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:LABELS

Manufacturer
VOLVO CARS OF N.A. LLC.
What Happened
The tire information label on your vehicle shows the recommended inflation pressure for your spare tire. In certain 2006-2012 Volvo C70 and 2011-2012 S60 models, this label may be incorrect, which could lead to underinflated or overinflated tires.
Risk if Unfixed
If the label is wrong, you might inflate your spare tire to the wrong pressure, which could cause it to fail while driving. This increases the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
Your Volvo dealer will check the label and replace it with the correct one, free of charge. You should schedule the repair as soon as you get the recall notice.
