## What is wrong

Volvo Car USA LLC \(Volvo\) is recalling certain model year 2017 S60 and S60 Cross Country, V60 and V60 Cross Country, and XC60 vehicles manufactured August 16, 2016, through October 21, 2016.  The affected vehicles have driver and front passenger seat side mounted side air bags \(SAB\) with inflator initiators that may fail to ignite during a crash.  As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard \(FMVSS\) number 208, "Occupant Crash Protection" and number 214, "Side Impact Protection."


## What can happen

If the air bag inflator initiator fails to ignite, the air bag will not deploy, increasing the risk of injury.


## The remedy

Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the front seat side air bags, free of charge.  The recall is expected to begin on February 13, 2017.  Owners may contact Volvo customer service at 1\-800\-458\-1552.  Volvo's number for this recall is R89712.


## Notes

Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1\-888\-327\-4236 \(TTY 1\-800\-424\-9153\), or go to www.safercar.gov.
