Just checked and found that my XC40 is one.
I would have thought that Volvo/Dealer would have contacted everyone affected, seeing that it is a brake issue. I have heard nothing yet. OK it it is an added safety feature and normal braking is still ok, but after all it is a Volvo!

While perusing all things Schoda I found that VAG has been recalling TSi cars across the brands for the engine cover to be discarded as it's a fire risk so if anyone reading has a TSi model and they have it serviced be warned the engine cover will be confiscated and although there's supposed to be a plastic replacement nobody seems to be able to get one right now.
As Volvo also use the soft touch covers I wonder if this will also be an issue with them. |

It turns out that it's actually a moulded sheet of fire suppressant that melts over the engine in the event of a fire. Good idea Subaru. |
