The problem: Drivers may have difficulty clearing the windshield using the windshield washer in cold temperatures. This is due to faulty “T” fittings and clogging in the windshield-washer nozzles.
Corrective action: Dealers will replace faulty nozzles with ones that allow better washer-fluid flow in cold temperatures.
Warranty info: Nozzle replacement will be done under the new-car warranty. Vehicles that are out of warranty but have an extended warranty may be eligible for repairs; repairs will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
What owners should do: Call your local dealer with your vehicle’s identification number to determine if it’s involved in this service bulletin. You can also call Volvo directly at 800-458-1552 or NHTSA at 888-327-4236. Reference TSB No. TJ29261.
