Volvo XC90, S80: Engine
Affects Volvo XC90, S80 · 2008 — about 7 vehicles.
The hazard
Certain vehicles may have been inadvertently assembled with incorrect engine mount bolts. The longer bolts do not provide adequate clamping force to the bracket. In the worst case, the aluminium bracket for the engine mount will break, allowing the engine to contact the sub frame, ultimately resulting in reduced engine torque or stalling. Engine stalling would result in lost propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect the engine mount bolts for specific markings and, if required, replace the bracket and bolts.
