The 2023 Volvo VNL has 3 recalls, the most serious being a brake system issue where over-tightened air tank bracket fasteners may have broken, allowing the air tank to detach from the truck and become a road hazard.
On the safety equipment side, trucks equipped with RollTek driver seats have a missing circuit that prevents the side curtain airbag from deploying in a crash, leaving the driver without that protection in a side impact. There is also a visibility concern: the windshield wiper motor gears can wear out prematurely and cause the wipers to stop working, reducing the driver's ability to see clearly in rain or poor weather.
