We own a 2023 Volvo XC90 Hybrid Recharge and after a few months, it just stopped working. It was towed to a dealer at the end of May since it is not driveable. The dealer has been wonderful in keeping us updated and has let us borrow a nonrecharge vehicle but here are the problems:

-There is an internal defect with the high-voltage battery. They finally receive a new battery but the new battery is defective so they are waiting on a replacement battery. There is currently no recall for our VIN number on this issue.

-There is a recall on our vehicle. Recall R10198 Electronic Control Module which is a safety risk. Per the recall: the estimated cooling flow on the electrical drive (ED) cooling circuit is set to zero due to faulty software logic when max cooling is requested. When the estimated cooling flow is set to zero, the Inverter Generator Module will set available torque to zero and the combustion engine will not start. Loss of propulsion can occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

If you own a recharge, please look up your VIN at the National Highway and Transportation website. If you have had problems, you can report the problem online.

Sorry to hear about this. My "favorite" part of Volvo ownership has been the lack of parts availability. It's not that Volvo as a company doesn't want to honor the warranty and help customers, it's that they have serious supply chain management issues on many of these components (including prioritizing new production over repairs) and so you can end up waiting multiple months for a fix to what is essentially a new car. Not sure if Volvo is unique on this. My previous BMW didn't have serious parts issues, but it was much older and didn't have high voltage electric tech.
