2019–2023 Volvo Vnre (electric): Electrical System recall
NHTSA campaign 23V401000 · 243 units potentially affected · filed Jun 4, 2023
What's wrong
Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo Trucks) is recalling certain 2019-2023 VNR Electric vehicles. The power cables that connect to the windscreen heater relay may have a loose connection and cause the relay to fail.
Why it matters
A relay that fails in the closed position will continue to power the cabin heater, overheating the relay and increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix
Dealers will tighten the power cable to relay connections, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 4, 2023. Owners may contact Volvo Trucks' customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Volvo Trucks' number for this recall is RVXX2306.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
