Reporting Safety Defects
Despite our strongest recommendations, and your best intentions, not wearing a seatbelt is like believing
"it'll never happen to me!". Volvo urges you and all adult occupants of your car to wear seatbelts and
ensure that children are properly restrained, using an infant, car or booster seat determined by age,

So, urging you to "buckle up" is not just our recommendation - it's becoming the law! The few seconds
it takes to buckle up may one day allow you to say, "It's a good thing I was wearing my seatbelt".
