Problem Volvo Bus Corporation (Volvo Bus) is recalling certain 2023 Volvo 9700 vehicles. The emergency light sensors may have been installed incorrectly, causing the emergency lights to fail to activate after a rollover event. Risk Emergency lights that fail to activate can increase passenger evacuation time, increasing the risk of injury. Fix Prevost will inspect and reinstall the emergency light sensors, if necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed December 30, 2022. Owners may contact Volvo Bus' customer service at 1-866-870-2046.

Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. SR22-86 is the number Volvo BUS assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 22V841000 is the number NHTSA filed the same recall under when the manufacturer reported it, and it is the one every federal record, this site included, is keyed on.

The repair is free by federal law for vehicles up to fifteen years old. Whether one particular vehicle is included is settled by its VIN against the manufacturer’s build list, not by its model year.

Check one specific vehicle

Both lookups check a VIN against the manufacturer’s own list and say whether the repair is still outstanding on that vehicle.

2023 Volvo BUS 9700, 14 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.
