P2 Airbag Campaign October 2021 Airbag Recall is coming

Jonboy74 · Post by **Jonboy74** » 21 Oct 2021, 12:42

I just read this article: Volvo adds 195,000 vehicles to recall for dangerous air bags

From the article: "The latest recall posted Thursday by U.S. safety regulators covers XC70 and V70 wagons from the 2001 through 2007 model years that were built from Feb. 22, 2000 through May 4, 2007"

Further: "Dealers will replace the driver's air bag “with a modern state-of-the-art propellant/inflator,” the Volvo documents say. Owners in the latest U.S. recall will be notified by letter starting Dec. 14."

Anyone know how or where to look this up? I just plugged my VIN into this site and it came back with nothing...

Sweet! I did not realize you could lookup recalls via VIN.... It doesn't list for mine yet, but based on the VIN range it should...I'm guessing it just hasn't updated/fully populated yet....

For anyone else interested: NHSTA Recall Lookup

Thanks,

Jonboy

And elsewhere in the P2 line, the S60 has already had the same recall issued.

Perspective

The issue is degradation of the explosive charge from high heat and humidity climates.
