Volvo in the affected vehicles, when the transmission shift lever is moved from reverse to neutral, the reverse gear may stay engaged.
The short version
Volvo Trucks North America reported a problem with the power train manual transmission. Here is what owners need to know.
In the affected vehicles, when the transmission shift lever is moved from reverse to neutral, the reverse gear may stay engaged. When the transmission shift lever is moved from reverse to a forward gear position, the transmission may mechanically lock because both the reverse gear and forward gear are simultaneously engaged.
Even though the transmission has been shifted out of reverse into neutral, the vehicle may unexpectedly move backwards, increasing the risk of a crash.
Volvo will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and repair the transmissions, if necessary, free of charge.
