2023–2025 Volvo Vnl (4), Volvo Vnr (4): Service Brakes, Air recall
NHTSA campaign 25V102000 · 8 units potentially affected · filed Feb 18, 2025
What's wrong
Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo Trucks) is recalling certain 2023-2025 New VN trucks. The brakes may take longer than expected to activate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Why it matters
Delayed brake activation can extend the distance required to stop, increasing the risk of a crash.
The fix
Dealers will install a new pneumatic circuit, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed March 11, 2025. Owners may contact Volvo Trucks' customer service at 800-528-6586. Volvo Trucks' number for this recall is RVXX2502.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 888-327-4236 (TTY 888-275-9171) or go to nhtsa.gov.
