Vehicles Affected: An unknown number of model-year 2016 versions of the Volvo XC90 three-row SUV; Volvo told Cars.com that the volume of vehicles affected has not yet been determined.
The Problem: Volvo is reporting that a trim panel could interfere with the deployment of the side curtain airbag, affecting third-row coverage. This increases the risk of injury in an accident, though the automaker says there have been no incidents or accidents related to this issue. This is unrelated to a previous Volvo XC90 airbag recall.
The Fix: Volvo will modify the design of the panel surrounding the airbag curtain to ensure the airbag inflates as intended; dealers will install the fix for free.
What Owners Should Do: Volvo has not yet released an owner notification schedule. Owners can call Volvo at 800-458-1552 for more information.

Hellbent on finding a journalism job after earning an English degree from DePaul University, I stumbled into the automotive industry in 2003 — much to the delight of my Corvette-obsessed dad. After working as an editor at Consumer Guide Automotive for several years, I joined Cars.com in 2011 and am currently an expert reviewer, certified car-seat technician and mom of three. I wear a lot of hats — many of them while driving a minivan. My first car was a 1994 Mercury Tracer, and I currently drive a 2012 Mazda5.
