2023–2024 Volvo C40BEV: Air Bags recall

NHTSA campaign 24V938000 · 2 units potentially affected · filed Dec 18, 2024

What's wrong

Volvo Car USA, LLC (Volvo Car) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Volvo C40 vehicles. The clamps may be improperly crimped on the driver's side inner far side air bag module (FSAB), which can cause the air bag to deploy improperly.

Why it matters

An air bag that deploys improperly may not protect the driver as intended during a crash, increasing the risk of injury.

The fix

Dealers will replace the driver's side inner FSAB, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 24, 2025. Owners may contact Volvo Car customer service at 1-800-458-1552. Volvo Car's number for this recall is R10296.

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 nhtsa.gov.
