This page covers 3 recalls and 30 owner complaints for the 2024 Volvo Xc90.
Electrical and software issues dominate what owners of the 2024 XC90 report. The most frequently described problem involves the infotainment screen and instrument cluster going dark while driving, sometimes accompanied by the climate control shutting off and a "Critical Error" message prompting the driver to pull over. Several owners say this happens repeatedly and at highway speeds, and at least a few link the onset to a software update. The back-over prevention system draws an equal share of complaints, with owners describing difficulty seeing clearly through the rear camera or rear windows, particularly in certain lighting conditions. Powertrain reports round out the top concerns, though in smaller numbers. The screen blackout and system restart pattern is the most consistently described symptom across this complaint set.
