Consumer Description
Both front strut upper bearings failed with less than 30k miles. Continued noise coming from front end diagnosed as failed left strut, causing left upper bearing and strut to be replaced. Polestar 2, which uses the same assembly and Volvo have issues technical journals. Polestar is issuing an upgraded part, though it appears Volvo is not. Owner forums comment on this issue and it is well known with Volvo. A solution for the front suspension should be implemented under a recall as failure of these parts is premature and seems to represent a manufacturing defect.
