WARRANTY
When You Take DeliveryDefect or damage to paint, sheet metal,
upholstery, or other appearance items that may
occur prior to delivery usually are corrected during
the inspection process at the assembly plant and
the retailer facility. In the event you find any of
these concerns when you receive your vehicle,
notify your retailer without delay.
Production ChangesVolvo reserves the right to make changes in or
additions to passenger cars manufactured and/
or sold by Volvo at any time without incurring any
obligation to make the same or similar changes to
passenger cars previously manufactured or sold
by Volvo.
Maintenance & ServicingIt is recommended that you use your authorized
Volvo retailer for maintaining and servicing your
vehicle. Your Volvo retailer employs factory trained
technicians and is focused on offering you the
best overall experience with your new Volvo
product. Additionally your authorized Volvo retailer
is prepared to make sure that any revisions or
upgrades, as required by Volvo, will be performed
on your vehicle. (This excludes upgrades of a
cosmetic nature which are made to the car over
time. See also “Production Changes”).
Volvo’s 2021 New Vehicle Limited
Warranty–U.S./New Vehicle
Warranty–Canada
What Is WarrantedVolvo warrants that repairs required to Volvo
passenger vehicles due to defects in material or
workmanship and occurring under normal use
will be made at no charge for parts and/ or labor
during the warranty period. Those parts and
services not covered are detailed in this section
and should be carefully reviewed.
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 or 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.
The Warranty Period—Four (4) years/
50,000 Miles/80,000 Km
The warranty period for repairs is four (4) years
or 50,000 miles/80,000 kilometers, whichever
occurs first.
The warranty starts on the date the vehicle is sold/
delivered to the first retail purchaser or put into
service, whichever occurs first. Vehicles placed into Retailer Demonstrator Service
will receive the remainder of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty (U.S.), New Vehicle Warranty
(Canada) period when retailed.
Certain components are covered by specific
warranties, such as the Federal Emissions
Warranty. Once the specific warranty period is
over, these components will be covered under the
remaining New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Genuine Volvo AccessoriesIf a Volvo-approved accessory is purchased and
installed by a Volvo retailer as part of your new
vehicle purchase, the warranty period is four
(4) years or 50,000 miles/80,000 kilometers,
whichever occurs first. The warranty period will
start and run concurrently with the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. If a Volvo- approved accessory is
installed by a Volvo retailer after your new vehicle
purchase, it will be warranted for the balance
of your New Vehicle Limited Warranty period,
or for a period of two (2) years from the date
of installation, whichever is longer. Accessories
purchased but not installed by a Volvo retailer will
be covered for a period of two (2) years from

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..
Emissions Warranties – U.S. and
Canada
Design and Defect Warranty
What Is Warranted–U.S.
Volvo warrants that your 2021 model year Volvo
was designed, built, and equipped to conform
at the time of sale to U.S. emission standards, in
accordance with Section 207(A) of the Federal
Clean Air Act, which was applicable when the
vehicle was manufactured.
What Is Warranted–Canada
Volvo warrants that your 2021 model year Volvo
was designed, built, and equipped to conform at
the time of sale to Canadian emission standards,
in accordance with the Canadian Motor Vehicle
Safety Act, which was applicable when the
vehicle was manufactured.
5 In the U.S., some states have mandated alternate warranty coverage for seat belts only. Contact your Volvo retailer for details of local requirements.

40
WARRANTY
In the U.S. and Canada
This warranty covers repairs resulting from any
defect in material or workmanship which would
cause the vehicle not to meet emission standards
during the applicable warranty period. Some
components considered part of the emission
system applicable to this warranty are listed in the
article “Emission Warranty Parts List – Federal –
U.S. and Canada” in this booklet.
This emission warranty is not conditionally based
on the use of genuine Volvo parts or service.
However, failures which occur as a result of
abuse or lack of maintenance are not eligible for
coverage.
Warranty Period
The federal emissions design and defect warranty
period is two (2) years or 24,000 miles/ 40,000
kilometers, whichever occurs first. Volvo continues
coverage under new car warranty to four (4) years
or 50,000 miles/80,000 kilometers, whichever
occurs first, except for certain specified major
emissions components for which the coverage
is eight (8) years or 80,000 miles/130,000
kilometers, whichever occurs first. These major
components include only the threeway catalytic
converter (TWC), engine control module, electronic
rear axle drive (ERAD) and the onboard diagnostic
system (OBD). (Refer to the 2021 Emission
Warranty Parts List for specific components’
coverage.) The warranty begins on the date
the vehicle is sold/delivered to the first retail
purchaser or put into service, whichever occurs
first. Any remaining portion of the warranty is fully
transferable to subsequent owners free-of-charge. Where the warranty applies
This warranty applies to 2021 model year vehicles
sold by Volvo Car USA, LLC, or Volvo Car Canada
Limited, certified for sale, registered and normally
operated in any 50 states of the U.S., the District
of Columbia, any territories or commonwealths of
the United States, or any territories or provinces
of Canada.
Repairs and Service
The emission control system of your new 2021
model year Volvo passenger vehicle was designed,
built, and tested using genuine Volvo parts.
The car is certified to be in conformity with the
appropriate U.S. Federal or Canadian emission
control regulations at the time of production.
Servicing
It is recommended that any replacement parts
used for maintenance, repair, or replacement of
emission control systems be genuine Volvo parts
or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts.
You may elect to have maintenance, repair, or
replacement of the emission control devices
and systems performed by any automotive
repair establishment or individual. You may
also elect to use parts other than genuine
Volvo parts or genuine Volvo remanufactured
parts which have been certified by the part
manufacturer for such maintenance, repair, or
replacement without invalidating this warranty.
The cost of such service or parts, however, will
not be covered under the warranty. Parts
Use of replacement parts which are not equivalent
to Volvo quality may impair the effectiveness of
emission control systems. If other than genuine
Volvo parts or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts
are used for maintenance, repair, or replacement
of components affecting emission control, the
owner must obtain assurances that such parts are
warranted by their manufacturer to be equivalent
to genuine Volvo parts in performance and
durability. Volvo assumes no liability under this
warranty for parts other than genuine Volvo parts
or genuine Volvo remanufactured parts. However,
the use of non-Volvo replacement parts does not
invalidate the warranty on other components
unless the non-Volvo parts cause damage to
warranted parts or systems.

41
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.
If an emergency occurs and no authorized Volvo
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
warranty. Replaced parts and paid invoices must
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 2021 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



booklet. Items that affect emissions and
require scheduled replacement are warranted
up to their first replacement point [such as
spark plugs, filters, belts, etc.]. Once these
parts have been replaced at the scheduled
replacement point, they are no longer covered
by this Emissions Warranty. The replaced
parts are covered by the two (2) year spare
parts warranty.
2. Malfunctions in any part caused by any of
the following: misuse, improper adjustments,
modification, alteration, tampering,
disconnection of system parts, and improper,
inadequate or non-maintenance.
3. Damage resulting from accidents, acts of
nature, and events beyond the control of
Volvo.
4. The use of fuel and/or oil, or other fluids which
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
components of the emission control system. 7.
Any loss of time, inconvenience, loss of vehicle
use or commercial loss.
Emission Performance Warranty–U.S.
and Canada
The warranty begins on the date the vehicle is
sold/delivered to the first retail purchaser or put
into service, whichever occurs first.
In accordance with Section 207(B) of the Clean
Air Act, Canadian MDU and Canadian Provincial
Warranty Regulations, Volvo warrants to the first
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 “2021 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
provincial law, then Volvo shall remedy the
nonconformity at no cost to the owner.
