2025 VOLVO XC60 Electrical System Problems

On December 28 the tailgate on my Volvo 2025 xc60 PHEV began to open and close randomly while it was not running, parked in my garage and and plugged in. I unplugged the car from the charger, firmly closed the tailgate and went back in side my house. I checked on the car several minutes later to find the tail gate open again. I again firmly closed the tail gate and this time ensured that I locked the car with the button on the key fob. 10 minutes later the tailgate was open again, while the car was parked, turned off and not plugged in. After closing the tailgate again, I now locked the car via the app. When I checked again in 15 minutes the car was unlocked, but the tailgate was still closed. All of these incidents happened between 8 am and 9:45am. I was able to take...

My wife and I purchased this vehicle brand new from the dealer in Feb 2025. To date, we barely have 4,000 miles on the car. Since owning the car, we have experienced at least 5-6 incidents that the vehicle’s computer system fails to operate. When this occurs, there is no sound from any devices. The entertainment system works, but no sound, the blinkers work but no sound. More important, the car heat/cooling systems don’t operate, the light indicating cars are in your blind spots do not operate. We brought our vehicle back to our local dealership each time. In September, the dealer reached out to Volvo to have the computer “brain” replaced. They had the car for three days only to be told Volvo denied the replacement because what is occurring is a known issue and an update release was coming in November to fix the issue. November came and...

When arriving at the high school parking lot to pick our grandson up from band practice, we experienced Sudden Unintended Acceleration of our vehicle as we attempted to pull into a parking spot. This resulted in a collision with another vehicle that had backed into the parking space in front of us. That driver was inside her vehicle and claimed injuries. As you can imagine we were pulling into the space at a very slow rate of speed when all of a sudden the car lunged forward at a high rate of speed, jumped two parking lot cement barriers and slammed into the rear of her vehicle. The car is equipped with all the latest collision avoidance equipment, but did not stop before hitting the other vehicle ... and no automatic warning sounds went off that I am aware of. A police report was filed and a tow truck had...

Acceleration from standing position

I am writing to formally express my significant concerns and dissatisfaction with the recurring software and system issues I have experienced with my Volvo XC60, purchased on 1st February 2025, approximately four months ago. The vehicle’s Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) is [XXX] . Since taking delivery, I have encountered multiple persistent problems that have severely impacted the vehicle’s functionality and my overall driving experience. These issues include: Car Sensors: The sensors frequently malfunction, leading to inconvenience and raising serious safety concerns. Heads-Up Display: The display intermittently shuts off, limiting access to critical driving information. Cruise Control: This feature is entirely non-functional, significantly detracting from the driving experience. Sound System: Following a recent service visit, the audio system has completely stopped working, with no sound from the music system, indicators, or system alerts. Check Engine Light: The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) repeatedly illuminates, suggesting potential issues with the engine or related...
