    TRIM PANEL MAY CAUSE INJURY DURING COLLISION

    Defect

    Volvo's quality follow-up procedures have identified an issue with a limited number of S60 & V60 Volvos (MY2013). The securing screws for the inner A-pillar panels may have been torqued incorrectly. This could cause the A-pillar panels to crack and this may affect the attachment of the trims during a collision should the inflatable curtain be activated. If the trims become detached they could cause injury to the occupants in the front seats. The corrective action is to replace both A-pillar trims as well as the securing screws.

    Remedy

    Replace both trim panels and screws.

    FIRE MAY OCCUR

    Defect

    It has been determined that under extreme circumstances the rubber hose section of the VVT oil pipe can leak. A failure of the VVT oil feed pipe may result in oil being deposited onto the engine as well as the exhaust system. This could cause potential engine failure and a potential risk of fire because of the presence of flammable vapour which could result in a crash.

    Remedy

    The oil feed pipe will be replaced

    DIRECTIONAL CONTROL MAY BE AFFECTED

    Defect

    It has been established that the Tyre Pressure Management System (TPMS) ECU had been installed with incorrect specification software for the front axle. The software allows for a greater tyre pressure difference between tyres on the front axle. If this occurs it could in extreme circumstances affect the stability and directional control of the vehicle.

    Remedy

    Recall all affected vehicles and install the correct software.

    POSSIBLE UNINTENTIONAL INCREASE OF ENGINE SPEED

    Defect

    The throttle valve may become stuck when the accelerator pedal is fully or almost fully depressed leading to possible unintentional increase of engine speed. This is caused by interference of the cruise control cable connector with the engine cover.

    Remedy

    Modify the engine cover to prevent the cover from interfering with the cruise control cable.

    BRAKE PIPES MAY CRACK

    Defect

    Further to Recall 440 (R2012/059) and investigations undertaken by DAF it is suspected that the most likely cause of cracked Hytrel brake pipes in Circuit 3 (hand brake circuit) is due to stress on the air pipe in combination with a certain chemical agent that may be used in the cleaning of vehicles.

    Remedy

    As a result it is necessary to replace Voss couplings with the Raufoss type coupling on Circuit 3.

    SEAT FRAME STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY CONCERN

    Defect

    It is possible that one or more of the mounting bolts fitted to the cross bar of the folding seat may not have been installed correctly. In a collision this could affect the structural integrity of the seat.

    BRAKE EFFICIENCY COULD BE REDUCED

    Defect

    The nearside front brake hose may not be properly secured and could chafe. If not noticed the chafing could cause loss of brake fluid and the warning lamp to illuminate. Additionally it is possible the braking efficiency could be adversely affected.

    Remedy

    Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check and where necessary correctly secure the nearside front brake hose or replace the hose.
