2017 VOLVO VNM
3 safety recall campaigns, 1 carrying NHTSA's "park it" advisory, 1 defect investigation.
Do not drive
1 campaign covering the 2017 VOLVO VNM carries NHTSA’s “park it” advisory — the federal government telling owners to stop driving the vehicle until the remedy has been performed. Whether it was performed on any particular car is not something NHTSA publishes in a form anyone can query; a franchised dealer can run the VIN and print the record in a minute, and the repair is free.

SUSPENSION:FRONT:HUB
Overloaded front wheel hubs can result in premature failure of the hubs, bearings, and the related components, which can cause the front hub assembly to separate from the front axle. Because of this, the driver may lose control of the vehicle or parts may be dropped on the road, increasing the risk of a crash.

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR
If the brake system becomes contaminated, braking performance could be affected, increasing the risk of a crash.
This page is about a model, not a car
Two 2017 VOLVO VNMs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
