Volvo VN and VHD trucks have wrong weight label
medium How serious is it? About this label
An overloaded vehicle can increase the risk of a crash. The notice does not tell owners to stop driving.
What's wrong, in plain English
Certain 2024 Volvo VN and VHD trucks with size 295/75 or 385/65 Continental tires on the front axle have a sticker that lists the wrong maximum weight the front axle can carry. Because the number on the certification label is too high, the truck can be loaded past what it should safely handle. Nothing mechanical is broken — the information is simply wrong. A dealer will peel off the incorrect label and put on a correct one, free of charge.
What you should do
1. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm your truck is covered. 2. Contact your Volvo Trucks dealer to have the label replaced, or call Volvo Trucks customer service at 1-800-528-6586 (recall RVXX2314). 3. Get the new label installed — it is free.
