Quick Answer
- How do I check a Volvo recall by VIN?
- Enter the 17-character VIN into the recall check on this page. It is printed on the lower driver-side corner of the windshield, on the driver's door jamb and on the registration. The check decodes the VIN to its exact year, make and model and lists the NHTSA recall campaigns filed for it, free and without an account. The full history report lists the recalls returned for that exact VIN. Whether a repair was done is in the manufacturer's records, which a Volvo dealer or NHTSA's VIN lookup can confirm.
- How many recalls does Volvo have?
- For the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, NHTSA's recall search returned 10 recall campaigns. The largest groups, at 2 campaigns each, are filed under back over prevention, electrical system and seat belts. Across the make, NHTSA lists recalls on 18 Volvo model names for 2024 alone. The count that matters for a purchase is the one for that car's VIN.
- Are there Volvo do-not-drive recalls?
- None of the 10 campaigns sampled here, for the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, carries NHTSA's do-not-drive or park-outside warning. Other Volvo models and years can, so check the VIN of the car in front of you.
Volvo recalls on NHTSA's record, 2022–2024
Volvo's sampled campaigns tend to reach the S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 together, and the remedy is often software: rearview camera, engine control module, brake control module.

Sample: the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, the Volvo models with the most US searches. NHTSA lists recalls on 18 Volvo model names for 2024 alone, so this is part of the make's record, not all of it. A campaign is listed under each sampled model NHTSA's search returned it for; its own text sets the versions and VINs it covers, which can be narrower (one engine or body) or wider (other models). A VIN check lists the campaigns filed for one car's exact year, make and model.
Which systems Volvo recalls involve
On the 2023 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5, a diagnostic error in the brake control module may cause a loss of ABS, stability control and traction control, and Volvo's remedy is an over-the-air software update, so the proof is the module's software level. The same rearview camera fault appears under a later campaign for the same sampled vehicles, so confirm each campaign separately.

A model-year list can’t tell you about one Volvo. Its VIN can.
Recall campaigns, title brands, reported accidents and odometer records follow the VIN.
Do-not-drive and park-outside warnings
NHTSA flags a campaign when the risk is serious enough that owners are told not to drive the vehicle, or to park it outdoors away from buildings, until the repair is done.
None of the 10 campaigns in this sample carries either flag. That is a statement about these models and years only; a VIN check lists the campaigns filed for one car’s exact year, make and model.
What the latest Volvo campaigns say
NHTSA's own wording, shortened. A campaign covers a VIN range, so a listed model year does not mean every car of that year is included.
NHTSA 25V908000Reported December 23, 2025—Back over prevention › Software
Returned for the 2023–2024 S60 B5, 2023–2024 XC60 B5, 2022 XC60 B5 AWD and 2023–2024 XC90 B5 in this sample.

Buying a used Volvo: checking recall status
A recall belongs to a range of VINs, and whether the repair was done belongs to one car. Both questions are answered by the VIN, not the model name.
Model years in a campaign are only a starting point. The recall itself follows VIN ranges, so a 2024 S60 B5 named under the passenger air bag campaign still needs its own VIN checked.
The brake control module and rearview camera fixes can arrive over the air, so a used 2023 S60 B5, XC60 B5 or XC90 B5 may show no dealer visit for them. A Volvo dealer can read the installed software and confirm.
NHTSA's VIN lookup or a Volvo dealer confirms what is still open. On a 2022 plug-in hybrid, settle the high-voltage battery campaign before you buy, because it tells owners not to charge the car until the remedy is completed.
The Volvo customer line printed in most of these campaigns' remedy notices is 1-800-458-1552; where a campaign prints another number, use that one.
How recall repairs and owner notices work
When a manufacturer has to notify owners of a safety defect, federal law requires it to remedy the defect without charge when the vehicle is presented for remedy. The manufacturer chooses how: repairing the vehicle, replacing it with an identical or reasonably equivalent vehicle, or refunding the purchase price less a reasonable allowance for depreciation (49 U.S.C. 30120).
The free remedy has an age limit. It does not apply if the vehicle was bought by its first purchaser more than 15 calendar years before the recall notice was given (49 U.S.C. 30120(g)). Every model year sampled on this page is inside that window.
Owner letters go by first-class mail to each registered owner the manufacturer can identify through state records, no later than 60 days after it files its defect report under Part 573, with a second letter once the remedy is available if it was not at first (49 CFR 577.7). A car bought used, or registered at an old address, can miss both, which is why a used car's recall status is checked by VIN.

Volvo Recall Check FAQ
What NHTSA’s record shows for these models, and what only a VIN can answer.
How do I check a Volvo recall by VIN?+
Enter the 17-character VIN into the recall check on this page. It is printed on the lower driver-side corner of the windshield, on the driver's door jamb and on the registration. The check decodes the VIN to its exact year, make and model and lists the NHTSA recall campaigns filed for it, free and without an account. The full history report lists the recalls returned for that exact VIN. Whether a repair was done is in the manufacturer's records, which a Volvo dealer or NHTSA's VIN lookup can confirm.
How many recalls does Volvo have?+
For the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, NHTSA's recall search returned 10 recall campaigns. The largest groups, at 2 campaigns each, are filed under back over prevention, electrical system and seat belts. Across the make, NHTSA lists recalls on 18 Volvo model names for 2024 alone. The count that matters for a purchase is the one for that car's VIN.
Are there Volvo do-not-drive recalls?+
None of the 10 campaigns sampled here, for the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, carries NHTSA's do-not-drive or park-outside warning. Other Volvo models and years can, so check the VIN of the car in front of you.
Are Volvo recall repairs free?+
Yes, within a legal age limit. Federal law requires the manufacturer to remedy a safety defect without charge, by repair, replacement or a refund less depreciation, whichever it chooses (49 U.S.C. 30120). That duty does not apply if the vehicle was first bought more than 15 calendar years before the recall notice. In this sample, NHTSA flags 2 campaigns as fixable with an over-the-air software update.
What is the latest Volvo recall?+
Among the campaigns NHTSA's recall search returned for the 2023–2024 S60 B5, XC60 B5 and XC90 B5 and the 2022 S60 B5 AWD, XC60 B5 AWD and XC90 T5 AWD, the most recent is 25V908000, received by NHTSA on December 23, 2025: Back over prevention › Software, returned for the 2023–2024 S60 B5, 2023–2024 XC60 B5, 2022 XC60 B5 AWD and 2023–2024 XC90 B5. A rearview camera image that does not display reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash. New campaigns are added as manufacturers file them, so run the VIN for the current list.
How will I be told about a Volvo recall?+
The manufacturer mails a letter by first-class mail to each registered owner it can identify through state records, no later than 60 days after filing its defect report with NHTSA, and a second letter once the remedy is available if it was not at first (49 CFR 577.7). The Volvo customer line printed in most of these campaigns' remedy notices is 1-800-458-1552; where a campaign prints another number, use that one. A car bought used, or registered at an old address, can miss the letters, so check the VIN before you buy.
