Volvo is initiating a recall of 7,483 plug-in hybrid vehicles from the 2020-2022 model years, including the S90, V90, S60, V60, XC60, and XC90 models, in the United States. This recall is due to a manufacturing deviation in the battery modules supplied by LG, posing a potential risk of short circuits and subsequent fires. To date, two incidents of thermal runaway have been reported, fortunately without any injuries. Volvo intends to commence notifying owners in May to arrange for complimentary inspections, which will entail the replacement of defective battery modules and an upgrade to the monitoring software.
