Issue:
On certain vehicles, electrical connections for the audio module could become damaged. As a result, the seat belt reminder chime may not work when your seat belt isn't buckled. Canadian regulations require a seat belt reminder sound when a driver isn't wearing their seat belt.
Note: This recall only affects certain vehicles equipped with the Premium Sound option.
Safety Risk:
A seat belt warning that doesn't work correctly may not remind you to buckle your seat belt. Not wearing your seat belt can increase the risk of injury in a crash.
Corrective Actions:
Volvo will notify owners by mail and advise you to take your vehicle to a dealership to replace the damaged audio module terminals.
