Service bulletins for the 2016 Volvo XC60
A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

| TJ20402.3.4-2017 | 2019-11-18. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; STRUCTURE. Technical Journal TITLE : The Error Frame Finder (EFF) can be an aid in fault tracing intermittent CAN network problems by providing a visible indication of error frames that are being transmitted on the network when the fault becomes active. The advantage of using the EFF function is that error frames are usually transmitted on the network before a vehicle symptom can occur. Hence, if the fault is very intermittent in nature, it may be possible, for example, to induce the wiring fault for a short duration by manipulating the vehicle harnesses and connectors. The electrical fault will occur and be detected by the EFF without ever having a vehicle symptom appear. The instructions for setting up the tool have been simplified. |
| TJ32206.1.0-2017 | 2019-11-18. Service bulletin. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM; EQUIPMENT. This is a Technical Journal: Short sound interruptions while streaming via Bluetooth. Short sound interruptions may be heard while streaming music via Bluetooth. This may occur even if the audio/music file is stored in the mobile phone.A possible temporary solution may be to change the source in the IHU to Radio and back to Bluetooth again. Another temporary solution to improve this symptom is to perform a ?hard reset? of the mobile phone and/or perform a factory reset of the IHU (NOTE! The IHU will be restored to factory settings.) Do not replace the IHU due to this symptom as it will not solve the root cause. |
