Volvo Trucks North America is recalling 638 of its 2019-2024 VN and VHD model trucks because the passenger-side bench seat may not be securely attached to the floor. This defect means the vehicles do not meet federal safety standards for seating systems and seatbelt anchorages. Dealers will fix the issue by replacing the current weld nut with a more secure setup consisting of two nuts and a washer for free.
If the bench seat is not properly attached, the mounting points can fail during a collision. This can cause the seat to shift or break loose, significantly increasing the risk of injury to passengers during a crash.
