Volvo XC90: Brakes
Affects Volvo XC90 · 2004 — about 206 vehicles.
The hazard
On certain vehicles, erroneous front wheel speed sensor signal could cause the ABS and speed control systems to behave erratically. Inadvertent activation of the cruise control from a stand still or low speed may occur causing the vehicle to accelerate suddenly. Other symptoms such as uncomfortable ride, faulty gear changes, loss of engine torque and unwanted activation of spin control could also occur. Once the system has detected the fault, the yellow ABS warning lamp and a text message will be displayed. Correction: Dealer will replace the front wheel speed sensors.
