2018 Volvo V60cc Safety Report

The 2018 Volvo V60CC presents a unique safety profile due to the complete absence of NHTSA consumer complaints. With 0 total complaints, 0 crashes, 0 fires, 0 injuries, and 0 deaths reported, this vehicle has not generated any public safety concerns through the NHTSA complaint system. This lack of data makes it challenging to identify common failure patterns or specific component weaknesses from a consumer perspective. Despite the clean complaint record, the vehicle has been subject to two safety recalls. One recall, affecting various Volvo models including the 2011-2018 S60 and V60, addresses a potential issue with front seat belts. The consequence of this defect is an increased risk of injury for an unsecured occupant in a crash. The second recall, impacting 2017-2019 Volvo models including the V60 and V60 Cross Country, concerns the Vehicle Connectivity Module software. This software issue could prevent GPS location from being provided to emergency personnel, thereby inhibiting emergency response in the event of a crash or injury. NHTSA crash test ratings for the 2018 Volvo V60CC are not available (N/A) for Overall, Frontal, Side, or Rollover categories. This absence of official government crash test data means that the vehicle's performance in controlled crash scenarios cannot be directly assessed through NHTSA's rating system. Therefore, while consumer complaints are non-existent, the full picture of crashworthiness and potential recall-related risks should be considered.

Our recommendation: Given the absence of consumer complaints and Volvo's general reputation, the 2018 V60CC appears reliable, but ensure both recalls for seat belts and emergency call system software have been addressed by a dealer.
