Volvo XC90: Airbag

Affects Volvo XC90 · 2016 — about 514 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles equipped with seven seats, the Inflatable Curtain (IC) air bag may not deploy as intended for third row passengers. In the event of a collision that warrants a deployment of the Inflatable Curtain, the interior trim panel on the D-pillar(s) could obstruct the IC from inflating fully. If this were to occur, it could increase the risk of injury to third row seat occupant(s) in certain types of crashes. Correction: Dealers will modify the D-Pillar interior panels to allow full inflation of the inflatable curtain air bag.
