AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)07/01 Report--

Volvo has announced a massive recall of nearly 2.2 million cars made between 2006 and 2019, the largest recall in Volvo's history, Reuters reported.

Volvo's recall will address the potential wear and tear of the steel wire connected to the front seat belt of the vehicle. The models affected include Volvo S60, S60L, S60CC, V60, V60CC, XC60, V70, XC70, S80 and S80L produced between 2006 and 2019.

The reason for the recall is that there is a wear problem with a steel wire connected to the vehicle seat belt, which may reduce the restraint capacity of the front seat belt.

The solution is that Volvo will start contacting affected owners this month, who will need to drive their vehicles to local Volvo dealerships and replace steel wires with fixed brackets. The original parts and replacement parts are from the Swedish supplier Otto Liv.

Volvo said the recall was to prevent possible future problems. "the recall is a strong solution to eliminate the risk of this problem in the future," the company said. At present, there have been no accidents or casualties related to this problem. "

The specific market involves the number of vehicles. The Swedish market needs to recall 412000 vehicles, the United States has 308000 vehicles, China has 245000 vehicles, Germany has 178000 vehicles, the United Kingdom has 169000 vehicles, and so on. The total number of Volvo vehicles recalled worldwide is 2.1837 million.

In March, Volvo also announced a global recall, covering almost all models on sale, totaling 736400, including 150900 in the Chinese market. The main reason is a problem with the AEB emergency braking system. Volvo said that under certain circumstances and at certain temperatures, the vehicle's AEB emergency braking system may not work properly and enable the vehicle to achieve emergency braking.

Volvo also said the failure was related to a problem with the AEB sensor software inside the front windshield and was recalling all affected cars for updates to the AEB software.
