A bit (but not much) off topic, I've just imported a 2013 T4 V60 from Japan.
Contacted my local Volvo dealer to give them the VIN and check if there were any outstanding recalls. Having imported a good few Scoobies, Ive come to find that the Japanese don't seem to keep up to date on any manufacturer recalls.
Volvo dealer response - "your VIN is showing as a V60 on our servicing system, but it then doesn't appear on the recall system at all"
They checked in their UK service 'teams chat' and the response was that being a Japanese delivered/registered vehicle, it won't show on Volvo's European systems. Which I find odd. I have been on the Volvo UK website and punched my VIN in and it didn't bring up any vehicle. Again, odd. The VIN I have matches the chassis/ original order sheet from Japan.
The service department recommended I contact Volvo UK directly to see what they can do. Which I have a few days back, but no response.
I know I will probably been quite alone with this, however, has anyone experienced this at all? Or have any advice?
