Manufacturer Campaign Number: RVXX1503
Manufactured Begin Date: January 31st, 2011
Manufactured End Date: June 25th, 2015
Date of Owner Notification: October 13th, 2015

Defect Summary:
Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo) is recalling certain model year 2012-2016 VAH trucks manufactured January 31, 2011, to June 25, 2015, and equipped with a sealed drag link.

Corrective Summary:
Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will replace the drag link with one that has an improved geometry, free of charge. The recall began on October 13, 2015. Owners may contact Volvo customer service at 1-800-528-6586. Volvo's number for this recall is RVXX1503.

Manufactured Begin Date: March 14th, 2013
Manufactured End Date: April 28th, 2014

Defect Summary:
Volvo Trucks North America (Volvo) is recalling certain model year 2014-2015 VAH, VNL, and VNM trucks manufactured March 4, 2013, to April 28, 2014.
