- Campaign:
- 07V563000 on 12/11/2007
- Component:
- Visibility:defroster/defogger system
- Manufactured:
- 03/07/2006 - 10/18/2007
- Affected:
- 37,000
- Defect:
- On certain sport utility vehicles, under certain conditions, the climate control module (ccm) may receive a 'shut-down signal' from the engine control module (ecm) after ignition key insertion. if this condition occurs, the climate control functions will not be available (including the defroster) during that driving cycle.
- Consequence:
- Inoperative defrosters under inclement weather conditions could cause impaired visibility which has the potential to result in personal injury and/or vehicle and property damage.
- Correction:
- The ecm software will be upgraded. the recall began on january 28, 2008. owners may contact volvo at 1-800-458-1552.

- Component:
- Engine and engine cooling:engine
- Manufactured:
- 03/02/2008 - 03/12/2008
- Affected:
- 102
- Defect:
- Volvo is recalling 102 my 2008 xc90 and s80 vehicles equipped with v8 engines. these vehicles may have been built with incorrect bolts to the engine mount.
- Consequence:
- The aluminum bracket for the engine mount could break due to lack of adequate clamping force. this could cause the engine to come in contact with the sub-frame, ultimately resulting in a reduced engine torque or stalling of the engine without prior warning, increasing the risk of a crash.
- Correction:
- Dealers will inspect the engine mount bolts for specific markings. if any of the bolts contain the incorrect markings, the bracket and bolts will be replaced. all owners have been contacted and arrangements have been made to repair these vehicles.
- Notes:
