WARRANTY
Owner’s ObligationsFailure to make corrections of accident damage,
acts of nature, or to maintain the vehicle
properly, including washing and polishing as
described in the Owner’s Manual, voids this
warranty.
It is your responsibility to retain all maintenance
and repair documentation. To avoid potential
deterioration, your retailer must be notified as
soon as possible of any problems with the painted
surfaces.
NOTE
This warranty can be provided because
in manufacturing the vehicle, Volvo used
processes and materials which are designed to
help resist corrosion.
The application of additional rust proofing
products at the time of new car purchase, is not
recommended by Volvo. If non-Volvo products
were chemically incompatible with the Volvo
factory applied protection, they could cause
problems which would result in voiding this
warranty.
If an accident should occur, you must ensure
that the following conditions are met in order to
maintain coverage under the Corrosion Protection
Warranty:
•
repairs are performed to Volvo standards,
•
your Volvo retailer will identify the location of a
Volvo Certified Body and Paint Service Center,
•
only genuine Volvo new replacement parts are
installed,
•
undercoating and/or rust proofing is reapplied
wherever necessary. (See your Volvo retailer
for details on Volvo-approved rust prevention
materials.)
Seat belts and Supplemental
Restraint Systems, Limited Warranty–
U.S./Warranty–CanadaWhat Is WarrantedVolvo warrants that repairs required due to defects
in the material or workmanship to the seat belt
system and Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
installed in your 2020 model year vehicle will be
performed free-of-charge during the warranty
period (except for those items listed under “What
Is Not Warranted”).LimitationsNo implied warranty of merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose shall apply
except during the applicable periods of this
warranty.
This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and
you may also have other rights which vary from
state to state, province to province. Some states/
provinces do not allow limitations on how
long an implied warranty lasts, so the above
limitations may not apply to you.
For a complete description, refer to the article
“Limitations and Disclaimers” in this booklet.
39
WARRANTY
The Warranty PeriodThe warranty period is five (5) years and has no
mileage/kilometer limitation.
5 It begins with the
date the vehicle is sold/delivered to the first retail
purchaser or put into service, whichever occurs
first.
What Is Not Warranted•
Seat belt system and Supplemental
Restraint System components which show
evidence of damage because of abuse,
misuse, negligence, tampering, or improper
installation.
•
Replacement of seat belt system or
Supplemental Restraint System components
after a vehicle has been involved in a collision.
•
The loss of vehicle use, loss of time,
inconvenience or other incidental charges,
such as telephone calls, towing, lodging,
car rental, or food, or other consequential
damages except where required by law.
•
Repairs required as part of normal
maintenance.
•
Replacement of components in accordance
with the maintenance schedule.
Seat belts: “Something We Believe In”Seat belts are an integral part of the safety
system engineered into each Volvo.
Despite our strongest recommendations, and
your best intentions, not wearing a seat belt is
like believing “it’ll never happen to me!”
Volvo urges you and all adult occupants of your
car to properly wear seat belts in all seating
positions, and ensure that children are properly
restrained in the rear seats only, using an infant
car seat or booster seat determined by age,
weight and height.
Fact: In every state/province, some type of child
restraint legislation has been passed. Additionally,
most states/provinces have already made it
mandatory for occupants of a car to use seat
belts.
So, urging you to “buckle up” is not just our
recommendation – it’s becoming the law! The
few seconds it takes to buckle up may one day
allow you to say, “It’s a good thing I was wearing
my seat belt.”
Instructions for proper seat belt usage can be
found in your Owner’s Manual..

WARRANTY
Retailer Service
Repairs and service covered by this warranty will
be performed by an authorized Volvo retailer at his
place of business with no charge for parts or labor
(including diagnosis), using genuine Volvo parts or
genuine Volvo remanufactured parts for any part
of the emission control system covered by this
warranty and found defective.

retailer is available, repairs may be performed at
any available service establishment. Volvo will
reimburse the owner for such repairs (including
labor, in most cases) that are covered under this

be presented at a Volvo retail facility as a condition
of reimbursement for emergency repairs not
performed by a Volvo retailer.
We encourage you to have all recommended
maintenance and repairs on your new 2020 Volvo
vehicle completed. Volvo will not deny a warranty
claim solely because you have no record of
maintenance; however, Volvo may deny a warranty
claim if your failure to perform maintenance
resulted in the failure of a warranted part.
Receipts covering the performance of regular
maintenance must be retained for reference and
confirmation purposes.What Is Not Warranted1. Required maintenance services as specified
in the Owner’s Manual and in the article
“Maintenance Service Operations” in this

replacement point, they are no longer covered
by this Emissions Warranty. The replaced
parts are covered by the two (2) year spare
parts warranty.

the following: misuse, improper adjustments,
modification, alteration, tampering,
disconnection of system parts, and improper,
inadequate or non-maintenance.

nature, and events beyond the control of
Volvo.

do not meet the Volvo-approved standards
as set forth in the Owner’s Manual, Volvo
Service Literature or in the articles “Fuel
requirements” and “Engine oil” in this booklet,
which results in the failure of a warranted part
or system, may not be warranted.
5. Repairs on vehicles for which the true
odometer mileage cannot be readily
determined.
6. The cost incurred from the use of parts other
than genuine Volvo replacement parts or
genuine Volvo remanufactured parts used for
maintenance, repair or replacement affecting

vehicle purchaser and each subsequent purchaser,
that if
1. the vehicle is maintained and operated in
accordance with the written instructions for
proper maintenance and use (Refer to the
Owner’s Manual under the section titled
“Service and Routine Maintenance” and
the article “2020 Service and Maintenance
Requirements” in this booklet), and
2. the vehicle fails to conform at any time during
the first 24,000 miles/40,000 kilometers
or two (2) years (whichever occurs first) to
the applicable emission standards as judged
by an EPA approved or Canadian Provincial
approved emission short test, and
3. such non-conformity will result in the vehicle
owner having to bear any penalty or other
sanction (including denial of the right to use
the vehicle) under local, state, federal or
