Volvo V70

Issue: 
On certain vehicles, the flexible steel cable that attaches the seat belt to the outside of the front seats may weaken over time. As a result, the seat belt could detach. 
 
Safety Risk: 
A seat belt that detaches in a crash could create an increased risk of injury. 

Corrective Action: 
Volvo will notify owners by mail and instruct you to take your vehicle to a dealer to replace the front-outboard seat belt anchors.

On certain vehicles, there is a possibility of overheating issues of batteries in the Garmin nüvi® 760 when certain batteries manufactured within a limited date code range are used in certain Garmin nüvi® 760 models with a specific printed circuit board (PCB) design.  The interaction of these factors can, in some circumstances, increase the possibility of overheating, which may lead to a fire.  Correction: Dealers will direct customers who have an affected unit to the Garmin Web site, which explains how to verify if their units are involved and includes procedures to follow for product exchange.

On certain vehicles, there may be an intermittent fault in the driver's airbag clockspring wiring connector for the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).  If this condition occurs, the SRS lamp will be permanently lit and the message "AIRBAG SYSTEM SERVICE REQUIRED" will be displayed in the drivers information module.  If the condition occurs while driving, and if the driver ignores the warning and an accident occurs where the deployment of the driver's airbag is required, the airbag may not deploy as intended or may not deploy at all.  Correction: Fealers will install a metal shim in the airbag clockspring wiring connector.

On certain vehicles, the engine cooling fan may stop working due to a software programming error in the Fan Control Module (FCM).  Depending on conditions, the driver may experience reduced air conditioning performance and/or rapid increase in engine coolant temperature.  This could result in a loss of cooling system function and engine break down.  The driver may not have sufficient time to react to the warning light(s) or the text message in the instrument panel, increasing the risk of a crash causing personal injury or death.  Correction: Dealers will replace the Fan Control Module.

On certain vehicles, the fuel pressure sensor may at times transmit an incorrect signal to the Engine Control Module (ECM).  If the signal is outside of the pre-programmed allowable limits, a diagnostic trouble code may be set and the check engine light will come on.  An engine misfire may occur, reducing available engine torque and possibly causing the engine to stall.  In certain traffic situations this could cause an unsafe situation and possibly a crash.  Correction: Dealers will replace the fuel pressure sensor.
