2007 VOLVO VT Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2007 Volvo VT has 3 recalls, the most serious being a steering shaft that can separate from a loose locknut and cause complete loss of steering control. The fuel system recall involves a pre-heater in the fuel filter base that stays energized when the ignition is in the on position; if someone performs fuel filter maintenance without turning off the ignition, diesel fuel can ignite inside the filter housing and potentially spread into a larger fire. The third recall involves the fifth wheel hitch assembly, where the lever arm may have been installed incorrectly, preventing the latch jaw from closing fully around the trailer king pin and allowing the trailer to separate from the truck while driving.

2007 VOLVO VTTransport Canada Recall #2007338

OTHER

Defect

On certain trucks, the fifth wheel hitch assembly's lever arm may have been incorrectly installed during the manufacturing process. The lever arm pivot bolt may have been over-tightened which could distort the pivot bolt spacer sleeve and prevent the fifth wheel latch jaw from closing and latching securely around the trailer king pin. This could allow the towed unit to separate from the towing vehicle while underway, potentially causing a crash with injury or death.

Safety Risk

No risk description available.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the pivot bolt and sleeve with a hex head shoulder bolt and washer.
