2019-20 Volvo V60: AEB not working due to missing code
In April 2020, recall campaign R29998 was issued for 2019-20 Volvo V60 vehicles that were available for sale in Australia from 22 March 2019 to 17 March 2020. Software code in the Active Safety Domain Master (ASDM) system was missing and this could result in the Automatic Emergency Brake (AEB) system not triggering the automatic brakes. If the driver failed to react to the AEB collision warning and the AEB system failed to activate the brakes, there was an increased risk of injury for vehicle occupants and other road users. To fix, the vehicle’s software was to be upgraded. The usual brake, collision warning and brake support systems for pedestrians and bicycles, however, were not affected. For the VINs of the recalled vehicles, please see PRA 2020/18264.
