Volvo EX30 recalled over faulty head restraints

Volvo is recalling the EX30 to fix head restraints. They may not work in a collision. This creates a serious injury risk.

Volvo Car Australia is recalling the EX30 small luxury SUV. The front seat head restraints were not made correctly.

In a collision, the defective restraints may move or detach from the seat. This increases the risk of serious injury or death.

The fix is free. Owners need to book an appointment at an authorised Volvo dealer.

This is the third safety recall for the EX30 in Australia this year. Two separate recalls happened earlier for a battery fault that could lead to vehicle fire.

Volvo confirmed it was replacing defective battery modules.

AustraliaAny Australian EX30 owner must get the fix done free. This is the third major recall for this model this year, raising reliability concerns.
