TPMS system total malfunction. Wife started out of our garage for work and noticed that the vehicle wasnt driving right and fortunately stopped and back down our driveway back toward the garage. Called me out and I went around the vehicle and witnessed the right front tire was completely flat. The system had not alerted her and when I went through the menu it had a green checkmark and said all tire pressures were good. Pumped the tire up and turned vehicle around put back in garage, tire had went completely flat and still no indication from TPMS. Called dealer and was told I would have to bring it in, but I have a ruined tire and no confidence that if I fix the tire vehicle would be safe to drive the 25 miles to the dealership. The dealership had replaced the center information console and the one in front of the driver at 4000 and 7000 miles respectively because of total catastrophic failure, causing suspicion to me that there may be some cause and effect to that end. The vehicle only has 38,758 miles on it at this point. Just grateful the tire went down overnight in my garage rather than on my wifes commute home from work.

Seat BeltsApr 2023 · ODI 11518516Details +Close −
Two different times, while stopped at a traffic light, suddenly and without cause the seat belt tensioners in the front seats activated until we released the buckles. They violently retracted into our bodies, causing chest pain and for me, a female, left breast pain. The first time was 09/15/2022. The second time was 04/22/2023. The current software is version 2.7. For the first time, the version was 2.2. To be clear, we weren't moving at all, nor was the car in line in front of us. We notified Volvo after the first time and will do so again now.

The petitioner indicated that, based on his review of data, there is no justification for asserting potential benefits that could be derived from actions sought by my petition. Based on the petitioner's withdrawal, DP22-005 is closed. Closure of this DP does not represent a determination by NHTSA regarding the subject matter of the petition.
