Volvo service campaign S4308 202412

Volvo filed this with NHTSA as a service campaign dated Dec 19, 2024, received Jan 2, 2025, about the electrical system. It names 1 model year (2025). A service campaign is not a safety recall — there is no NHTSA campaign number and no federal requirement — but it is usually work the manufacturer pays for on the vehicles it names; the dealer checks the VIN against the manufacturer’s list.

What the bulletin says

Source: NHTSA's summary of the manufacturer's communication

Volvo Trucks has identified that certain VN model trucks may encounter an issue with the EECU during a shutdown event. If this occurs, the EECU could become corrupted, leading to multiple fault codes, engine derate, and, in some cases, preventing the truck from starting.

The summary is NHTSA’s abstract of the document, as filed under 49 CFR 579.5; the full text comes from the manufacturer or a dealer. 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. Quote it at a service desk; it is what the dealer’s system is keyed on.

Model years it names

Also filed against: 2025 Volvo VNL (4).

None of these model years has a page on this site (it covers EPA-certified cars, trucks and SUVs from 2016), so the bulletin is listed here on its own.
