2020 Volvo Xc90phev

The 2020 Volvo XC90 PHEV has 2 recalls, both involving brake failure: one where a loose connection between the brake pedal and the hydraulic unit can cause the brakes to stop working entirely, and one where braking can fail during hill descent when using B mode or One Pedal Drive.

In the first issue, the pushrod screw joint that links the brake pedal to the brake hydraulic unit can work loose, meaning pressing the pedal may produce little or no stopping force. In the second, certain coasting scenarios on downhill grades can cause the vehicle to lose brake function when regenerative braking modes are active.
