Tires · reported Nov 6, 2026
I am reporting a serious safety concern involving the original equipment Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season tires installed on my 2025 Volvo XC60. With only approximately 15,000 miles on the vehicle, the tires are experiencing significant and premature deterioration. The front driver’s side tire is particularly bad, with substantial pieces of rubber missing from the tread. The remaining three tires also show deterioration and large missing pieces of rubber. This is not what I would consider normal tire wear on a relatively new vehicle with such low mileage. I am the only owner with little…
Tires · reported Oct 31, 2026
235/55 R19. Premature wear, soft rubber, chunking, failed to reach rated mileage (60,000), durability, no customer support, corporate not taking ownership, tread wear, and cracking. Car purchased Sept 2025. Had approximately 4500 miles when purchased. Ride is not as smooth as it was when first purchased. Cannot get up to a speed where I feel safe driving the car. I pray no one is killed before corporate takes ownership. I also feel that a recall should be in place for this tire. Someone will get hurt and corporate will end up paying more than what they would to reimburse customers.
Electrical System · reported Oct 5, 2026
2025 Volvo XC60 Plus B5, 23,317 miles. The driver's-side exterior mirror changes position without driver command, creating a safety risk due to an incorrect rearward/adjacent-lane view. This has already contributed to a close call when my wife drove the vehicle without realizing the mirror had changed from its previously set position. The issue is movement of the mirror glass within the housing, NOT the power-folding mechanism, which operates normally. When the vehicle is unlocked, the driver's mirror may move to an incorrect/random position. The position also does not consistently match the…
Tires · reported Sep 28, 2026
I purchased a 2025 Volvo XC60 new. It has 18,000 miles on the car. The tires were on the vehicle when purchased. The tires are Pirelli 255/40 RZ1 102 V Mts. DOT IXB RM 582P 1424. The front driver side tire has huge chucks of rubber missing on the tread. This issue is getting worse over time. I purchase a new tire and was told that Pirelli "may reimburse" me for the tire. This tire is a safety hazard. Volvo is aware of this issue however, they contiue to sell vehicles with know issues.
