Crown Signia vs V60

The recall 25V179000 affects 2020–2022 V60 T8 Twin Engine and Polestar Engineered plug-in hybrids, but because the 2022 model year received a mid-year 18.8 kWh battery upgrade, you should verify the exact build date. The defect can cause a thermal event or fire even when the car is parked or driven, so check your VIN status and ensure the free recall repair and battery update were completed before purchase.

Yes, recall 25V282 covers 2023–2025 V60 models of all variants. The rearview camera image may fail or become unavailable, reducing rear visibility and raising the risk of backing collisions. Volvo remedies this with a free over-the-air software update, so confirm the update was applied to any 2023–2025 V60 you consider.

The 2024–2025 V60 T8 Recharge and Polestar Engineered plug-in hybrids are covered by campaign 25V392, which can cause a loss of brake function when coasting downhill in 'B' mode or One-Pedal Drive for more than about 100 seconds without using the brake pedal. This dangerous defect was introduced by an earlier OTA update for the camera recall and is corrected by a free over-the-air update. Verify that both the camera and brake updates have been installed before buying.

Yes, the 2022 V60 model year is subject to an engine control module (ECM) software recall, covering all powertrains sold that year. The source does not specify symptoms, but Volvo will repair this at no charge under recall. If you are buying a 2022 V60, confirm that the ECM recall has been performed, and for T8 models also verify the 18.8 kWh battery upgrade and ERAD service documentation.
