VOLVO XC60 2024 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
lowI was completely stopped at a left turn. The rear collision sensor went off for no reason. The seat belt locked up so aggressively I could not get a breathe in and it ripped my insulin pump patch right off my stomach. If I was a couple hours away from home my blood sugar would go through the roof and cause ketones which could be fatal. Luckily I was 20 mins away from home. Being a [XXX] since [XXX] I am now [XXX] Volvo told me this is normal safety feature after inspecting the log. I donât think itâs normal for collision sensors to go off while not moving as well as the seat belt aggressively pulling to the point were I canât breathe and it rips off a life depending medical device right out of my stomach. If it is normal then they should have a warning for [XXX]. Iâm currently trying to get out of the car lease completely as this feature could literally kill me.

VOLVO XC60 2024 SERVICE BRAKES
highMy car is a 2024 Volvo XC60 PHEV. I was exiting a parking garage on the evening of April 24, 2026, going very slowly as I tried to get into a line of cars, when the brakes suddenly lost pressure. The brake pedal did nothing; I had no control over the car, which lurched forward, hitting the car in front of me. Then my car did the same thing again, and hit the next car again. I strongly suspect mechanical failure, namely that the transition from regenerative to friction braking failed. Exactly the same thing happened with the first XC60 PHEV that I had. In the summer of 2023, that acted as above on two different occasions. I turned that car into the dealer and in its place got the 2024.
VOLVO XC60 2024 FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
highAutomatic braking failure: Another vehicle slammed into my vehicle as I was moving at a slow pace. That other vehicle pushed the front of my vehicle into a dumpster in a parking lot. The automatic braking should have engaged and stopped the car so it wouldn't have crashed into the dumpster. It is unlikely the vehicle is available for inspection as it was towed to a salvage yard. My safety and that of others was put at risk. The problem could not be reproduced - the vehicle was severely damaged and undrivable. The manufacturer (Volvo) refused to inspect it. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms. Unsure if this is relevant, but the vehicle recently (less than 1 week ago) received an over-the-air (OTA) update to software version 5.0.5.
VOLVO XC60 2024 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:INSTRUMENT PANEL:SPEEDOMETER/ODOMETER
lowOn multiple occasions that center screen goes blank while I am driving, the indicator lights do not click, there is no display of vehicle speed, and the map function disappears. These issues cause uncertainly if not panic. I do not know if my indicator lights are working, if I can change lanes or if I need to change where I am trying to drive to, all while the vehicle is moving. I can only guess at how fast I am going. There is no warning before this happens. The dealer says that a software fix required by a recall would fix these problems, but they continue to happen.
