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

What Is Warranted–U.S.
Volvo warrants that your 2022 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 2022 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 (ECM),
electronic rear axle drive (ERAD) and the
onboard diagnostic system (OBD). (Refer to the
2022 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 2022 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 2022
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.
46
WARRANTY
For seven (7) years or 70,000 miles, whichever
first occurs:
If an emission-related part listed in this warranty
booklet, specially noted with coverage for seven
(7) years or 70,000 miles
6, is defective, the part
will be repaired or replaced by Volvo. This is your
long-term emission control system DEFECTS WARRANTY.
Owner’s Warranty ResponsibilitiesAs the vehicle owner, you are responsible for the
performance of the required maintenance listed
in your Owner’s Manual and this booklet. Volvo
recommends that you retain all receipts covering
maintenance on your vehicle, but Volvo cannot
deny warranty solely for the lack of receipts or
for your failure to ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.
You are responsible for presenting your vehicle
to a Volvo retailer as soon as a problem exists.
The warranty repairs should be completed in a
reasonable amount of time, not to exceed thirty
(30) days.
As the vehicle owner, you should also be aware
that Volvo may deny you warranty coverage if
your vehicle or a part has failed due to abuse,
neglect, improper maintenance or unapproved
modifications. If you have any questions regarding your warranty
rights and responsibilities, you should contact:

Volvo Car USA, LLC7 (“Volvo” or “VCUSA”)
warrants that your 2022 model year Volvo
passenger vehicle was designed, built and
equipped to conform to applicable California
emission standards as specified under the Health
and Safety Code 43205.
This warranty covers repairs resulting from any
defect in material or workmanship which would
cause any part installed on this vehicle which
affects any regulated emissions to not meet these
requirements or would cause the vehicle to fail
to pass a Smog Check test during the applicable
warranty period.
Warranty CoverageThe warranty period begins on the date the
vehicle is delivered to the first retail purchaser
or the initial date the vehicle is put into service,
whichever occurs first. The emission warranty is
transferable to subsequent owners.
The vehicle must be maintained and operated
under normal use in accordance with Volvo’s
written instructions for proper maintenance and
use, which are detailed in the Owner’s Manual
and in this booklet. Items and conditions listed
under “What Is Not Warranted” are excluded, if
any of these conditions exist.
NOTE
No implied warranty of merchantability or
fitness for a particular purpose shall apply
except during the applicable periods of this
warranty. Some states do not allow limitations
on how long an implied warranty lasts, so the
above limitations may not apply to you.
Volvo will repair, adjust, or replace a part when
performing a repair under the warranty.
The emission warranty is not conditionally based
on the use of genuine Volvo parts. Failures
which occur, however, because of abuse or lack
of required maintenance, are not eligible for
coverage.

WARRANTY
Where The Warranty AppliesThis warranty applies to 2022 model year
vehicles originally sold by Volvo Car USA, LLC,
certified for sale and registered in the states
of California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey, New York,
Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont and
Washington.
Repairs and ServiceThe emission control system of your new 2022
Volvo passenger vehicle was designed, built and
tested using genuine Volvo parts, and the car
is certified to be in conformity with California
emission control requirements.
According to Federal regulations, you are eligible
for additional emissions warranty coverage for
up to eight (8) years or 80,000 miles, whichever
first occurs for certain specific major emission
components. The Federal emissions warranty
starts on the date the vehicle is sold to the first
retail purchaser or put into service, whichever
occurs first. California and Federal Warranty
coverages are concurrent.
ServicingIt 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.
The owner may elect to have maintenance,
replacement, or repair of the emission control
devices and systems performed by any
automotive repair establishment or individual.
He/she may also elect to use parts other
than genuine Volvo parts or genuine Volvo
remanufactured parts for such maintenance,
replacement, or repair without invalidating
this warranty. The cost of such service parts,
however, will not be covered under the warranty
except in an emergency. (See Retailer Service.)Parts 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, replacement
or repair of components affecting emissions,
the owner should obtain assurances that such
parts are warranted by their manufacturer to be
equivalent to genuine Volvo Car USA, LLC parts in
performance and durability.
Volvo assumes no liability under this warranty for
parts other than genuine Volvo parts or genuine
Volvo remanufactured parts. The use of non-Volvo
replacement parts, however, does not invalidate
the warranty on other components unless non-
Volvo parts cause damage to those warranted
parts or systems.
Retailer ServiceRepairs, adjustments, and service covered by this
warranty will be performed by any authorized
Volvo retailer at his place of business. There
will be no charge for parts or labor (including
diagnosis) when genuine Volvo parts or genuine
Volvo remanufactured parts are used for any
part of the emission control system or for any
part which may affect emissions covered by this
warranty.
49
WARRANTY
If an emergency occurs and an authorized Volvo
retailer is not reasonably available, repairs may be
performed at any available service establishment
or by any individual, using any replacement part.
When a warranted part is not available within
thirty (30) days or the repair cannot be completed
within thirty (30) days, repairs may be performed
at any available service establishment or by any
individual, using any replacement part.
Volvo will reimburse the owner for emergency
repairs (including diagnosis) that are covered
under this warranty. The expenses, however,
cannot exceed our suggested retail price for all
warranted parts replaced and labor charges,
based on Volvo’s recommended time allowance
for the warranty repair and the geographically
appropriate hourly labor rate. Replaced parts and
paid invoices must be presented at a Volvo retailer
as a condition of reimbursement for emergency
repairs not performed by a Volvo retailer.
Failure to notify the owner of a decision to
honor or deny a Performance Warranty Claim
within thirty (30) days from the time the vehicle
is initially presented for repair shall result in
the vehicle manufacturer being responsible for
repairing the vehicle without charge to the vehicle
owner, unless such failure is attributable to the
vehicle owner or to events beyond the control of
the vehicle manufacturer or the repair facility. You are advised to have all recommended
maintenance or repairs on your new 2022
Volvo vehicle performed. Volvo will not deny
a warranty claim solely because you have no
record of maintenance; however, we may deny a
warranty claim if your failure to perform required
maintenance resulted in the failure of a
warranted part.
Receipts and/or maintenance records covering
the performance of regular maintenance should,
therefore, be retained in the event questions arise
concerning maintenance.
Inspection Program
California, Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Massachusetts, Maryland, New Jersey,
New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode
Island, Vermont and Washington
The following provisions apply to vehicles
which fail to pass the California, Connecticut,
Delaware, Maine, Massachusetts, Maryland,
New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington Smog
Inspection. Should your vehicle fail a smog check
test during the warranty period, you may choose
to have the vehicle repaired at any authorized
Volvo retailer. The authorized Volvo retailer will
make the necessary repairs within the three (3)
year/50,000-mile period so that the vehicle will
pass the inspection. After three (3) years/50,000
miles, but before a period of use of seven (7)
years/70,000 miles, the authorized Volvo dealer
will repair or replace only those parts listed in the
article “2022 Model Year Emission Parts List”
in this booklet. After seven (7) years/70,000
miles, but before a period of use of eight (8)
years/80,000 miles, the authorized Volvo
retailer will cover only the catalytic converter,
engine control module, electronic rear axle drive
(ERAD) and onboard diagnostic device. TZEV
vehicles identified in the article “Volvo’s 2022
New Vehicle Warranties” in this booklet have
all emission components except for the hybrid
battery covered for a period of fifteen (15) years
or 150,000 miles. Volvo will pay for the repair
unless the failure was caused by abuse, neglect,
improper maintenance, or the use of leaded
50
WARRANTY
fuel or fuels not recommended in your Owner’s
Manual or this booklet. If the failure is covered
under this warranty, Volvo shall be liable for
diagnostic and repair expenses. If the failure is
caused by a combination of warrantable and
nonwarrantable conditions, the owner shall not be
liable for the portion of diagnostic and repair costs
relating to the warrantable condition. If the failure
is caused by a nonwarrantable condition, the
vehicle owner shall be liable for all diagnostic and
repair expenses, but not to exceed the maximum
permissible under the inspection program. The
owner may choose to have the vehicle repaired at
a facility other than a Volvo retailer; however, if a
warrantable condition is found, the owner must
bring the vehicle to an authorized Volvo retailer to
have the repairs completed at no cost for parts,
labor, and diagnosis. Volvo will not reimburse
the owner for diagnostic costs incurred at the
unauthorized service facility except in the case of
an emergency.
What Is Not Warranted (applies to all
models)
1. Required maintenance services as specified 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 Emission Warranty.
2. Malfunctions in any part caused by misuse,
improper adjustments (by other than a
Volvo dealer during warranty repair work),
modification, alteration, tampering or
disconnection of system parts.
3. Damage resulting from accidents, acts of
nature, or 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 or in the
articles “Fuel requirements” and “Engine oil”
in this booklet, may not be warranted. 5.
Repairs on vehicles for which the true
odometer mileage cannot be readily
determined.
6. Parts other than genuine Volvo replacement or
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.
