Volvo Trucks North America is recalling approximately 5,257 of its 2023-2026 New VN trucks because the backlighting for the hazard switch may stop working. This defect means the switch does not comply with federal safety standards for controls and displays, as it may be difficult to see when needed. Dealers will resolve the issue by providing a free software update for the vehicle's master control unit.
An unlit hazard switch can be difficult for a driver to locate quickly during an emergency, which increases the risk of a crash or injury.
Vehicle Master Control Unit (VMCU) software update
