V60, V60CC, V70 & XC60 Recall

cumbrianmale · Nov 6th, 2015, 09:33

Potential engine failure due to crankshaft problem.

Details here

K5 Gus · Nov 6th, 2015, 11:06

Description : The crankshaft may not have been sufficiently hardened and may fail, this in turn can lead to sudden and catastrophic engine failure. The failure may be preceded by loss of power and a knocking noise.
Remedial Action : Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the engine.

Ouch !! Anyone know which engine this affects ?

Edit : found my VIN number on the My Volvo site, and thankfully not affected

Checked mine too... Not affected. Phew.

This is rather worrying though, to say the least.

these ones

YV1DZA8C1G2834227 to YV1DZA8CDG2843641
YV1FWA8CDG1297728 to YV1FWA8CDG1297728
YV1FWA8CDG1297728 to YV1FWA8CDG1297728
YV1BW73C1G1355301 to YV1BW73C1G1355301

allegedly 5 cars, although I make that 17. ( lines 2&3 are duplicated )
presumably the registered keepers are written to

hi, is this something that we as owners are to respond to, or is it the responsibility of volvo to contact the owners

Bhowani 2 · Dec 20th, 2017, 11:20

Not mine, but I do so feel for those who are going to "get the letter"

Presumably one of the "5" has blown up somewhere, and this is the follow-up!

Merry Christmas!

I'm guessing that they don't not. Maybe?

Not sure if you all know about this one, but when my 2009 xc60 was in having the windscreen resealed about a month ago, at booking it in the guy was like, theres a pulley recall outstanding, so they changed that at the same time!

I dont know which pulley or how long ago the recall was, but It got done.

Incase others haven't had this sorted yet!
