Volvo Trucks recalls 800 2024–2027 VNL trucks over weak parking brake force

In certain trucks without auxiliary parking brakes, weight bias mode may leave too little weight on the parking brake axle, so the parking brake may not hold and the truck could roll away and crash.

What to do

Dealers will replace the brake chambers free of charge. Owners may call Volvo Trucks customer service at 800-528-6586 and cite recall number RVXX2601.
