2024 Volvo XC60 problems, recalls and owner complaints

Collision avoidance system has activated nearly causing a collision with an oncoming vehicle three times. On narrow rural roads it is often necessary to steer quickly to the right when an oncoming vehicle approaches out of its lane. The car activates lane-keeping and steers to left toward approaching vehicle. If there is a bush or tall grass near roadway it also suddenly brakes as well as steers into traffic. This action nearly caused a collision today. Sensors are clean, windows clean, and no bright sunlight. All drivers aids are turned off. Each time message "Collision avoidance system…

Vehicle is repeatedly losing functionality of features controlled by what is referred to as the infotainment system, included lane departure warning, sound associated with turn signals, sound associated with GPS, use of hands-free calling system, etc. Upon reset, functionality resumes but the reset takes a few minutes and must be performed again and again as the issue is recurring. The main problem is that you don't know the functionality is temporarily down until something causes you to notice (IE no steering wheel vibration when departing a lane without turn signal, no alerts on backup…

I was completely stopped at a left turn. The rear collision sensor went off for no reason. The seat belt locked up so aggressively I could not get a breathe in and it ripped my insulin pump patch right off my stomach. If I was a couple hours away from home my blood sugar would go through the roof and cause ketones which could be fatal. Luckily I was 20 mins away from home. Being a [XXX] since [XXX] I am now [XXX] Volvo told me this is normal safety feature after inspecting the log. I don’t think it’s normal for collision sensors to go off while not moving as well as the seat belt aggressively…

My car is a 2024 Volvo XC60 PHEV. I was exiting a parking garage on the evening of April 24, 2026, going very slowly as I tried to get into a line of cars, when the brakes suddenly lost pressure. The brake pedal did nothing; I had no control over the car, which lurched forward, hitting the car in front of me. Then my car did the same thing again, and hit the next car again. I strongly suspect mechanical failure, namely that the transition from regenerative to friction braking failed. Exactly the same thing happened with the first XC60 PHEV that I had. In the summer of 2023, that acted as above…

On multiple occasions that center screen goes blank while I am driving, the indicator lights do not click, there is no display of vehicle speed, and the map function disappears. These issues cause uncertainly if not panic. I do not know if my indicator lights are working, if I can change lanes or if I need to change where I am trying to drive to, all while the vehicle is moving. I can only guess at how fast I am going. There is no warning before this happens. The dealer says that a software fix required by a recall would fix these problems, but they continue to happen.

Three (Right Front & Rear, Left Rear) of four factory-installed Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season tires (255/40R21, DOT 1XB RM582P 3923) are exhibiting tread block chunking, cracking, and physical material separation. All four tires share an identical DOT code from a single production run. Failure modes include lateral cracks across multiple tread blocks, physical loss of tread block material in multiple locations, and one tire with a deep tread void consistent with delamination. At 36,176 miles on a 2024 vehicle, this level of structural failure represents a safety hazard. The tread separation…

The rear axle electric motor casing cracked with significant oil leaking requiring replacement, taking 15 hours of labor. Part numbers were 36003926-7 and 36009926-1. The mechanic at Hunter Volvo Cars in [XXX] relayed that he had just performed the same repair for the same problem the week before, in the same dealership. This raises my concern of a system problem rather than a one-off problem. This is the PHEV version of the Volvo C60 (the T8 model). With a range in EV mode of 35-40 miles, 95% of driving is performed in EV mode. It is unclear If the electric motor attached to the rear axle…

Tire size: 255/40 R21 The original equipment Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season VOL PNCS tires (255/40 R21 102V, DOT JXB RW582P) on my 2024 Volvo XC60 CPO developed significant tread chunking and active delamination, discovered at approximately 19,225 miles — less than 40% of the expected tire lifespan. Component: Both front tires are available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: Tread chunks are physically separating from the tire at the tread edge. Active delamination at highway speeds presents a serious blowout risk to myself, passengers, and other drivers. Prior symptoms: No warning…

All of the audio warnings in the car suddenly stop working without any associated warning. On certain occasions (once every couple of months, unpredictably) the car's audio completely stops working. This includes any of the safety warnings such as the parking collision or rear cross traffic warnings. The audio starts working again after resetting the infotainment system by holding down the "Home" button for 30 seconds. The service department at the dealership appeared to be very familiar with this issue but did not have any proposed fixes.

My car periodically shuts down while on highway and once a week is completely dead and requires a jump or a tow. I have brought this to the dealerships attention for over 18 months and they continue to tell me that the problem is fixed. The car shut down and was completely dead again this week. No one from NA Volvo has ever called me back when I report the problem or has responded to countless inquiries.

In April 2025, the engine on our 2024 Volvo XC60 B5 Plus AWD failed suddenly with only 7,000 miles on the vehicle. The vehicle is leased and under full factory warranty. Volvo’s dealership confirmed the engine requires a full OEM replacement. However, our insurer, State Farm, is refusing to authorize a new OEM engine and is instead forcing the installation of a salvaged engine from a wrecked vehicle. This creates significant safety risks: • The salvaged engine’s crash history and internal integrity are unknown and cannot be verified. • It bypasses Volvo’s safety testing and voids the factory…
