2025 Volvo EX90

Too new to assess

The 2025 Volvo EX90 is too new for this measure. Almost every complaint about a vehicle this recent is a first-year complaint, because that is all the service life there has been, so the figure cannot separate a genuine early defect from simple youth. The complaint counts, systems and recalls below still stand on their own. The most-reported system is electrical system (33 complaints), typically at 1.3 yr or about 1,115 miles.

Electrical system mileage not reported 10 mo in service
The screen behind the steering wheel, which provides the car's speed, driver assist, warning lights, turn signals, and other driving information suddenly went blank. I was grateful that I was close to home and no longer on the interstate highway I had just exited. I drove home, reset the car, and the screen was back on. I was lucky. I could have been at the beginning on my drive, over a hundred miles from home and unable to easily exit the highway. The car is being towed today back to the dealer, again. This happened without warning. I was driving and the whole screen just went black.
Other mileage not reported 9 mo in service
Drivers display with vehicle speed and ADAS state goes blank while driving resulting in inability to see current speed or ADAS speed set point. After rebooting the system as previously advised by Volvo, the ADAS speed set point showed "00" while maintaining a speed of 70mph
