2015–2019 Volvo XC90

Category: Light Vehicle · Supplier: Volvo Car Corporation

Recall date: 8 May 2019

Defect

The short bleeder hose may become degraded and cracked, causing coolant leakage.

Hazard

If the coolant accumulates on the catalytic converter on the lambda sensor connection, the catalytic converter heat insulation may act as a wick, potentially resulting in a fire.

Remedy

Consumers should contact their Volvo dealer and organise an appointment to replace the short bleeder hose with a bleeder hose that is made from a more heat resistant material.
