Volvo issues safety recall over potentially faulty seat belt
Volvo Australia has been left red faced after having to recall almost 25,000
vehicles for potentially faulty front seat belts.
It’s an embarrassing fail for the company credited with giving the world the
three-point seat belt in 1959.
Volvo’s chief engineer Nils Bohlin, who used to design ejector seats for
Saab fighter jets, came up with the three-point design after a relative of
the chief executive had been killed in a car crash.
It’s still considered one of the most important innovations in vehicle
safety and formed the basis for the Swedish brand’s repuation as a safety
leader.
But Nils would be turning in his grave at the thought that nearly every
vehicle in Volvo’s line-up between 2007 and 2018 has been fitted with faulty
seatbelts.
The cars involved are the S60, S80, V60, V60 Cross Country, V70, XC60 and
XC70.
The seat belt has the potential to fail because the flexible steel cable
attached to the seat belt on the outboard side might detach from the belt
resulting in passengers not being restrained properly.
If this does occur then passengers are at an increased risk of a life
threatening injury if involved in an accident.
Owners will have to wait until after October for a fix because there is a
delay in getting the parts.
In the meantime Volvo will write to owners and provide information on a
temporary work-around to secure the front seat belts.
Once parts are available the company will alert owners who are then advised
to head to their nearest dealer for a free repair.

重點: 發明三點式安全帶的volvo因為安全帶問題要在澳洲召回多種車款,
包含2007年至2018年間的S60, S80, V60, V60 Cross Country,
V70, XC60 及XC70,共約25000部。
主要是因為安全帶鋼索與安全帶分離,導致使用者無法被hold住。
可能導致車禍時的生命威脅增加。
澳洲車主至少要等到10月,因為零件要待料。
