What is the reason for your concern around wifi interference?

Bear in mind the car can make its own wireless hotspot, as can mobile phones, I’d be a bit surprised if it caused interference with the safety equipment on the car, but you never know I suppose.

While perusing forums to help me find the fusebox and route my cables I found a number of threads where people were saying that Volvo do not approve the installation of dashcams in the new cars with Intellisafe.

Its discussed a bit in this thread: starting at post 9

Post 50 has a diagram attributed to Volvo showing areas of the screen that are not to be used.

I thought that always on WIFI and or BT close to the module was not such a good idea. Obviously there are drivers who have never had an issue but I think its worth consideration
