2018 VOLVO XC60 Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2018 Volvo XC60 has 5 recalls, the most serious involving the power tailgate: in cold weather, the lifting arms can freeze and separate from the vehicle, projecting metal components rearward with enough force to injure bystanders. Front seat hardware is also a concern on certain vehicles, where mounting nuts on the seat rail rear flange may have been left out during assembly. In a crash, the seat can shift out of position, reducing the protection the restraint system provides. There is also a wiper issue affecting certain vehicles: the nuts securing the front wiper arms may not have been tightened enough, allowing the arms to slip out of position and fail to clear the windshield properly, which reduces the driver's forward visibility in rain or snow.
