“I have owned this vehicle since july of 2020, and can't get the service for the safety recall performed. The recall is for the front seat belts. I have contacted the dealership and Volvo but haven't received a response.”
NHTSA complaint #11406905, filed 2021-04, 59,999 miles“A letter was sent from Volvo corp about a safety recall on seatbelts in august 2020 stating that parts would be available after nov 2020.
