Volvo EX30 high-voltage battery can overheat and catch fire

NHTSA campaign 26V001000 · Reported 2026-01-02 · Volvo Car USA, LLC

critical How serious is it? About this label

Serious — the notice does not tell you to stop driving, but it does say to park outside, away from structures, and to keep the charge under 70% because of fire risk.

⚠ Park outside, away from buildings — fire risk. See all such recalls.

What's wrong, in plain English

The large battery that powers your EX30 can short out inside and get too hot, which Volvo says raises the risk of a fire. Until the vehicle is fixed, Volvo wants owners to park outside and away from buildings, and to charge the battery no higher than 70 percent. A dealer will inspect the battery and replace modules if needed, free of charge. Volvo says this recall has been replaced by a newer one, number 26V103.

What you should do

1. Park outside away from buildings and keep charging to a maximum of 70% until the repair is done.
2. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls — VINs for this campaign became searchable January 26, 2026, and this recall was replaced by recall 26V103.
3. Contact your Volvo dealer or Volvo customer service at 1-800-458-1552 (recall R10355); inspection and any module replacement are free.
