Transport Canada lists: VN 2019–2024 · VNM 2019–2024 · Vnrhd 2019–2024

What the dealer will do

Volvo Trucks will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your truck to a dealership to replace the passenger-side bench seat fasteners

Structure

Transport Canada recall 2019331 · manufacturer campaign RVXX1904

3 July 2019

Transport Canada lists: Vah 2019–2020 · VHD 2019–2020 · VNL 2019–2020 · VNM 2019–2020

What is wrong

On certain trucks, the t-bolts for the transmission air tank straps may have been over-tightened. This could cause the straps to deform and allow the air tank to drop to the ground. If the air tank detaches, the transmission would not shift.

Why it matters

An air tank that completely detaches from the truck could create a road hazard for others. A transmission that does not shift properly could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Volvo will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealer to inspect the transmission air tank straps for damage. The straps will be replaced as required.

Transport Canada lists: Vah 2018–2020 · VHD 2018–2020 · VNL 2018–2020 · VNM 2018–2020

What is wrong

On certain trucks, the fuse for the transmission electrical circuit may have a lower rating than what is required. As a result, the fuse could blow while driving. This could cause the transmission not to shift.

Why it matters

A transmission that does not shift properly could increase the risk of a crash.

What the dealer will do

Volvo will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their truck to a dealer to install the correct fuse.
