Two numbers, one recall

Every safety recall carries two identifiers. R19931 is the number Volvo assigned in its own system: it is what appears on the owner letter, on the dealer’s service screen and on the repair order. 19V220000 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.

Common questions

Is R19931 the same recall as 19V220000?

Yes. R19931 is Volvo’s own number for it; 19V220000 is NHTSA’s. One recall, two references.

Which vehicles does R19931 cover?

2018–2019 Volvo S90 and 1 other Volvo model, 2,297 vehicles by the manufacturer’s count. A recall covers a build range, so the VIN decides whether one particular vehicle is in it.

Does the R19931 repair cost anything?

No. The manufacturer must remedy a safety defect at no charge for vehicles up to 15 years old from first sale.
