2020 Volvo S90 — reported problems and evidence

What the records are about, by source

Each source is kept separate: owner complaints, recalls, manufacturer communications and investigations are different kinds of record and are never added together. All model years.

Owner complaints (120 records, model years 1998–2024) are most frequently classified under: brakes, speed control & accelerator and electrical system.
Manufacturer communications (3,276 records, model years 1998–2024) are most frequently classified under: equipment & accessories, electrical system and engine.

"Most frequently classified under" reports how the records are filed by the source. It is not a finding about causes, and a record can be filed under more than one system. Read the individual records
