Overview

2023 Volvo V60CC

The 2023 Volvo V60 Cross Country blends the practicality of an SUV with the driving dynamics of a wagon. It offers standard all-wheel drive and a comfortable, upscale interior. However, used shoppers should be aware of significant safety recalls, particularly concerning the braking system, and owner-reported issues including a complete loss of vehicle sounds and problematic Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). These factors warrant careful inspection and consideration of potential repair costs.

Critical Failure Risk

A recall addresses potential issues with the Brake Control Module 2 (BCM2) software, which could lead to the loss of ABS, ESC, and traction control functions. This is typically resolved with an over-the-air or dealer-performed software update.

Early detection can help you avoid a $300-$800 repair.
