What Happened
The Engine Control Module (ECM) is the brain of your engine, controlling how it runs. In some 2022-2023 Volvo models, a software glitch in the ECM could keep your engine from turning over when you try to start it.
Risk if Unfixed
If this happens, you could lose power to your vehicle, including the engine, lights, and other essential systems. This could leave you stranded and increase the risk of a collision.
Free Fix
Your Volvo dealer will update the ECM software to fix the issue, and it's completely free. You'll get a notice in the mail, but you can also contact Volvo's customer service at 1-800-458-1552 to schedule the repair.
