Volvo's concern for safety
Safety is the Volvo cornerstone. Our concern
dates back to 1927 when the first Volvo rolled
off the production line. Three-point seat belts
(a Volvo invention), safety cages, and energy-
absorbing impact zones were designed into
Volvo vehicles long before it was fashionable
or required by government regulation. We will
not compromise our commitment to safety. We
continue to seek out new safety features and
to refine those already in our vehicles. You can
help. We would appreciate hearing your sug-
gestions about improving automobile safety.
We also want to know if you ever have a safety
concern with your vehicle. Call us in the U.S.
at: 800-458-1552 or in Canada at:
800-663-8255.
Occupant safety reminders
How safely you drive doesn't depend on how
old you are but rather on:
How well you see.
Your ability to concentrate.
How quickly you make decisions under
stress to avoid an accident.
The tips listed below are suggestions to help
you cope with the ever changing traffic envi-
ronment.
Never drink and drive.
If you are taking any medication, consult
your physician about its potential effects
on your driving abilities.
Take a driver-retraining course.
Have your eyes checked regularly.
Keep your windshield and headlights
clean.
Replace wiper blades when they start to
leave streaks.
Take into account the traffic, road, and
weather conditions, particularly with
regard to stopping distance.
Reporting safety defects in the U.S.
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect
which could cause a crash or could cause
injury or death, you should immediately inform
the National Highway Traffic Safety Adminis-
tration (NHTSA) in addition to notifying Volvo
Cars of North America, LLC. If NHTSA receives
similar complaints, it may open an investiga-
tion, and if it finds that a safety defect exists in
a group of vehicles, it may order a recall and
remedy campaign. However, NHTSA cannot
become involved in individual problems
between you, your retailer, or Volvo Cars of
North America, LLC. To contact NHTSA, you
may either call the Auto Safety Hotline toll-free
at 1-888-327-4236
(TTY: 1-800-424-9153) or write to: NHTSA,
U.S. Department of Transportation, Washing-
ton D.C. 20590.

Volvo strongly recommends that if your vehicle
is covered under a service campaign, safety or
emission recall or similar action, it should be
completed as soon as possible. Please check
with your local retailer or Volvo Cars of North
America, LLC if your vehicle is covered under
these conditions.
