There are five recalls involving the 2014 VOLVO VAH that address various critical vehicle systems. These recalls cover powertrain components, seat belts, braking systems, tires, and steering linkages. Each recall targets defects that could impact vehicle safety and proper operation.

• Clutch assembly. Recall 13V268000 affects 23,056 vehicles due to the absence of a redundant clutch disengagement switch. This defect prevents the clutch from automatically disengaging when the brake is applied if the brake air pressure switch signal is lost. The risk includes increased stopping distance and crash potential. Volvo will inspect and repair affected vehicles free of charge.
• Seat belts. Recall 13V618000 covers 5,486 trucks with IMMI-brand L9 seat belt buckles manufactured from August 12, 2013, to November 14, 2013. The buckle latch plate can remain partially engaged even after pressing the release button, hindering egress. This increases the risk of injury during emergencies. Dealers will replace the seat belt buckle at no cost.
• Disc brake caliper bolts. Recall 14V555000 involves 3,175 trucks built between March 4, 2013, and April 28, 2014. Bolts holding the disc brake caliper may be insufficiently torqued, potentially allowing the caliper to detach. This can cause the vehicle to pull to one side, raising crash risk. Dealers will inspect and tighten the bolts as needed without charge.
• Tires. Recall 14V740000 affects 115 trucks manufactured from May 12, 2010, to October 31, 2014. The tires may fail prematurely under conditions like high speed, heavy loads, and elevated road temperatures. Premature tire failure poses a safety hazard by increasing crash risk. Dealers will replace the tires and install a road speed limiter free of charge.
• Steering drag link. Recall 15V523000 involves 1,319 trucks with a sealed drag link made between January 31, 2011, and June 25, 2015. Damage to the draglink ball socket boot can allow corrosion leading to ball joint separation. Loss of steering control is a serious safety threat. Volvo will replace the drag link with an improved design at no cost.
