Volvo Trucks North America is recalling 858 of its 2023-2024 VN model trucks. These vehicles have a defect where the engine may fail to return to idle within the required two seconds if the accelerator pedal position sensor becomes disconnected. Volvo Trucks will replace the throttle pedal and update the vehicle software for all affected owners at no cost.
If the engine does not return to idle quickly enough after the driver releases the accelerator, it can lead to a loss of vehicle control. This unexpected engine behavior increases the risk of a crash.
