2022 xc60 software update fail & car won't start
Tried to run software update today. Car says update failed and car needs serviced before update. Then this red error light came on the dash. And now my car won't start. It recognized the key but car is dead. Have to get it towed. Anyone else? What's the deal? So frustrating. The red error light is not in the manual. It looks like a sideways car with an exclamation point through the middle of the roof.

I had the same thing happen with the last OTA update. I had to have it towed to the dealership and they kept it for a full day. I was told the car “crashed” after the failed software attempt. I won’t be doing anymore OTA updates. This really makes you realize we are driving a computer on wheels. Good luck with your situation, and keep us posted.

I had my 2022 XC60 at the dealership after two failed OTA software updates and after failing the first time at the dealership, finally got it through. Now I have the update 2.0 and all is well (so far). I was told by my sales guy that Volvo was thinking about taking out the Google system and replacing it with the Sensys system until they could get the bugs out. Agree they rolled out google way before they should. Part of the 2.0 is better OTA update connection. We'll see.

Same issue with my XC60
so, my brand new XC60 (2023) with 2800 miles wouldn’t start and I saw this same warning symbol on my dash. Had the car towed to a dealer an hour away. Is it a software update fail situation?

Yes, it’s a software fail, and my dealership told me not to do anymore OTA updates. This has never happened again, and now take it in for updates. Sorry you had the same inconvenience.

I unpluged the battery , pluged back again and the car started and the sign dissapeared.
I will take it to the dealership to get it checked.
