Volvo bulletin D10260A

What it saysVolvo Cars investigations have identified that the wrong part number has been assembled for the FLC2 and you will not be able to perform PDS software. NHTSA’s full summary ↓

Volvo filed this with NHTSA as a service bulletin dated Dec 13, 2023, received Jan 29, 2024, about the forward collision avoidance. It names 3 model years (2024). A service bulletin is not a safety recall: it is the manufacturer telling its dealers how to diagnose or repair a condition, and whether the work is paid for depends on the warranty in force. Quoting the number at a service desk can save a diagnosis.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5. One communication is usually filed as several documents — the bulletin, a dealer notice, an owner letter — and the number on any of them finds this page. A PDF link is shown only once NHTSA’s own server has been seen to serve that document; the rest are checked over the following nights. Quote the number at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

It’s not just the rear cross traffic and parking collision warnings: ALL audio goes, including media, chimes, reverse proximity tones, and even the turn-signal/blinker…

Common questions

Source: NHTSA, 49 CFR 579.5

Is Volvo D10260A a recall?

No. A service bulletin is a manufacturer communication filed with NHTSA under 49 CFR 579.5; a safety recall carries an NHTSA campaign number (two digits, a letter, six digits) and a federal duty to repair for free. Check the vehicle’s recalls by VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls, or on its page here.

Is the D10260A repair free?

Not automatically. A service bulletin describes how to diagnose or repair a condition; who pays depends on the warranty in force, any extension, and the dealer. Quoting the number can save a diagnosis either way.

Which vehicles does D10260A cover?

The manufacturer filed it against 3 model years: 2024 Volvo S60, 2024 Volvo XC40, 2024 Volvo XC90. Whether one particular vehicle is affected is a matter of its VIN and its build, not its model year alone.
