Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Volvo Trucks North America is recalling 222 of its 2025-2026 VNL (4) vehicles because the service brakes may take longer than expected to release after the driver lets off the pedal. This delay means the vehicles do not meet federal air brake safety standards. Dealers will install an additional brake valve and plumbing fittings free of charge to fix the timing issue.

Risk

If the brakes do not release immediately when expected, it can interfere with the driver's control of the vehicle, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify if you own a 2025-2026 Volvo VNL (4) truck by checking your vehicle identification number (VIN).
  2. Contact any authorized Volvo Trucks dealer to schedule a free repair, which involves installing an additional brake valve and fittings to the pneumatic plumbing.
  3. If you have questions, contact Volvo Trucks' customer service at 800-528-6586 and reference recall number RVXX2602.
  4. Call the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.nhtsa.gov for more information.
