The 2027 Volvo VNR (4) has 3 recalls, the most serious involving wheel lug nuts that can loosen and allow a wheel to detach, creating a loss of vehicle control and a road hazard for other drivers.
On the brake side, unprotected electrical connectors on the rear brake modulators can short circuit and knock out both the anti-lock brake system and electronic stability control at the same time. Losing both systems together means the truck is more likely to skid or lose directional stability during hard braking, particularly on slippery surfaces. There is also a lighting concern: the turn signals may not function properly, leaving other drivers without a clear indication that the truck is about to change lanes or turn.
