When the adaptive cruise control braking activates under light load conditions, it can trigger an aggressive braking response

Defect summary

Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo Trucks) is recalling certain 2020-2023 VNR Electric vehicles equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC). When the adaptive cruise control braking activates under light load conditions, it can trigger an aggressive braking response.

Consequence

Remedy
