2013 VOLVO VAH Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2013 Volvo VAH has 4 recalls, the most serious of which include a steering drag link that can corrode and separate, causing complete loss of steering control, and an exhaust heat issue on auto-hauler conversions where cab roof temperatures can rise high enough to start a fire. A third fire risk exists on certain trucks where a trim panel cutout can block the trailer hand brake handle from returning to the off position, leaving the trailer service brakes dragging. That continuous friction can overheat the wheel end, potentially igniting a fire or blowing out a tire. On the tire side, certain vehicles can experience premature tire failure under demanding conditions such as high speed, heavy load, or high road temperatures, raising the risk of a crash.
