Plain-English summary

Volvo Car will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, as necessary, tighten the SRS control unit mounting screws free of charge. The recall began on February 12, 2021. Owners may contact Volvo Car customer service at 1-888-458-1552 or the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236.
