SRS Airbag Service Urgent Drive to workshop light has come on twice. I was told by dealership it is a faulty wire harness where the airbags could possibly deploy if I was in an accident. Volvo does have a recall for the exact issue yet my VIN does not fall in this recall.
While driving the vehicle the "SRS Airbag" warning light comes on, I took the vehicle to the dealership which indicated the "seat harness" would need to be replaced. The seat harness has a integrated chip to alert the airbags to work properly. Volvo has had previously recalls for this issue on 2016 XC 90 vehicles but my VIN isn't included in the recall, I feel they need to expand the recall knowing their are several vehicles having this exact issue. Air bags are federally regulated and this is a safety related issue.
SECOND ROW SEAT'S ON THE DRIVER SIDE SLIDED TO THE FRONT , BECAUSE OF WHICH BOTH LEGS OF MY BROTHER WERE SQUEEZED BETWEEN THE DRIVER SEAT AND THE SEAT HE WAS SITTING ON. FORTUNATELY, THE VEHICLE WAS ON GOING SLOW - HE COULD HAVE BROKEN HIS LEG IF IT WAS MOVING ON HIGH SPEED. NOTE: SECOND ROW SEAT SHOWED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE SHOWED THE SIMILAR PROBLEM BEFORE BUT DID NOT RESULT ON SUCH DANGEROUS INCIDENT , SO I FIXED BY VISITING THE VOLVO DEALERSHIP. THERE CERTAINLY IS SOME MANUFACTURING DEFECTS ON SECOND ROW SEAT OF MY CAR, AND AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AROUND WITH PASSENGERS ON THE SECOND ROW. MY VOLVO HAS LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON ITS DASHBOARD.
AT LEAST 3 TIMES, MY CAR HAS BRAKED ITSELF (AT AROUND 50 MILES PER HOUR) WHEN THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME. THIS WAS VERY UNSAFE- IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN BEHIND ME, I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. THIS SEEMS TO BE THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM ENGAGING FOR NO REASON. THE DEALER HAS SAID THEY "FIXED IT" (DON BEYER VOLVO) BUT I BELIEVE THEY HAVE JUST TURNED THE SYSTEM PRETTY MUCH OFF SO THAT IT NOW WOULD NOT STOP IF THERE WAS A REAL OBJECT IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD A LOANER IN WHICH THE SYSTEM WAS STILL ON AND MINE NO LONGER WORKS LIKE THAT. I THINK THEY DON'T REALLY HAVE A FIX FOR THIS SO THEY JUST TURN IT OFF IN THE CARS THAT HAVE THIS DEFECT. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO, HAVE HAD THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM GO BLANK WHILE DRIVING THEN IT SHOWS THAT...
