For sure... i look at this new feature... as an additional safety precaution. Don't enter in panic (sort of speaking) everytime you see it

Question

The only thing which hasn't been explained anywhere from the information provided is how long the danger alarm is active for... hours, days, weeks?

Thank you for your email.

If you would like to follow this link you will be able to see all of the updates with the software update: https://www.volvocars.com/uk/support...centre-display
https://www.volvocars.com/uk/support...ftware-updates
...
Isn't there a way to determine the version of software/firmware our car is using rather than trying to look for features that might have changed due to an upgrade that should be applied?

Had it done yesterday. Comfort mode feels like dynamic. Polestar mode is very different. Like a new car. Love it 👍👍👍

Hello Crockers, was this done as part of the annual service, or did you request it to be done as a stand alone update?

I have just had the quality inspection done about 3 weeks ago, and there does seem to be a lot of updates after reading the links that you provided that were not done. Just seems wrong to me that you can be driving around for almost a year without the car operating at it's optimum.

It was supposed to have been done at service, but they had failed to do it. I complained and they picked the car up and did it yesterday. Give your dealer a ring and ask them did they upgrade your software. If they say no ask why not. Take it from there
