6 recalls across 4 model years
The Volvo C40 BEV has 6 recalls covering 2022 through 2025 model years, with the most serious affecting 2023 models where coasting downhill in "B" mode or One Pedal Drive can result in a complete loss of braking.
The 2023 and 2024 model years also have a recall involving the driver's side far-side airbag module, where improperly crimped clamps can cause the airbag to deploy incorrectly in a crash, reducing the protection it provides to the driver. Separately on 2023 models, a diagnostic error in the brake control module can disable anti-lock brakes, electronic stability control, and traction control simultaneously, removing multiple layers of crash-avoidance support. There is also a 2023 recall where a false error code can trigger a persistent "e-Call Service Required" warning in the instrument display, masking a real failure in the emergency call system and potentially delaying emergency response after a crash.
Across the 2022 through 2025 model years, the rearview camera can fail to display an image when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, leaving the driver without a view of what is directly behind the vehicle.
