2025 Volvo Vnl - Brakes

Volvo is recalling approximately 2,904 trucks from the 2025-2027 VNL and 2027 VNR models because rear brake modulator connectors may lack proper wiring protection, which could cause the antilock braking system and electronic stability control to fail. A loss of these braking features could increase crash risk. Volvo will mail owners instructions to have a dealership inspect and replace the brake modulators if needed, and install a protective cover on the connectors.
