What owners report
I am reporting repeated total electrical failures in my 2025 Volvo EX90 that create a serious safety concern, particularly regarding access to and escape from the vehicle. The vehicle has repeatedly become completely unresponsive, with the dashboard, headlights and interior lights dead. In the latest incident, this occurred approximately 15 minutes after parking at home. The alarm sounded for around 10 minutes before stopping, but the vehicle remained completely dead. The key fob, key card and Volvo app could not restore access. A roadside technician jump-started the vehicle through its 12V system, and it immediately woke up. The dealership had reportedly tested both 12V batteries and found
My car is a Volvo EX90 and it is totally electric. Twice in the past 6 weeks the car has died, once I was driving and an electric and brake warning came on and told me to stop the car. I pulled over immediately and the car never worked again-- it would not turn on and it has been "bricked" for the past 21 days. I was in the middle of a 4 lane street which is very dangerous, luckily there was an entrance to a church where I pulled over because the car immediately died thereafter. If I would have been on the highway when this occurred I could have died. The first time the car "bricked" it failed to turn on in a parking garage after being parked for about 90 minutes. Volvo replaced the batterie
On September 3rd 2026, my wife was driving our 2025 Volvo EX90 Ultra (approx.1560 miles) with our three children, ages 1, 4, and 6, in the vehicle when the air conditioning failed completely. Outside temperatures were over 100°F in Austin, Texas. The EX90 has a large glass panoramic roof, and the cabin heated rapidly once the AC stopped cooling. This created an extremely dangerous situation for young children. Along with the AC failure, the vehicle made a rumbling noise every 5â10 seconds and its charging was limited. Because these symptoms occurred together, I am concerned the fault may involve the vehicle's thermal management system, which could affect the high-voltage battery as well
Center screen goes black when driving. Driver display goes black when driving leaving me without speedometer or any data as everything is on those 2 screens. Misaligned passanger door that doesnt open properly. Dealership has fixed trim piece but not the alignment of the door. I have been back to the dealer several times - I bought the car XXX, it has spent at least 3 months in the shop. Volvo corporate on XXX said "At this time we do not have information on a permanent fix. Please rest assured that our technicians work on software updates to improve the infotainment center as well as the overall state of the vehicle. Once an update is available you will be notified with this information."
My husband and I were driving with our [XXX] son on the southbound [XXX] in the fast lane. There was some traffic so we were not traveling too fast, but in the fast lane nonetheless. An error message came on the screens indicating there was a critical electrical failure. At that moment, my husband realized that the carâs acceleration was no longer working. We went to turn on our hazard lights and those did not work either (as they are solely in the computer panel and not a separate mechanical button). Thankfully we were able to safely make our way to the side of the highway to wait for a tow truck. The car was towed to Galpin motors, and has been there ever since. As of today, we have been
