1 Blind Spot Detection problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2026

Component failure & inspection availability: infotainment head unit (ihu) / audio module (aud) running android automotive os. The vehicle and its components are available for inspection upon request. Safety risk: the audio system completely crashes approximately every 3 drive cycles. This failure disables all safety-critical audio features, including turn signal clicks, backup camera and parking sensor chimes, blind-spot/cross-traffic warning alerts, and emergency system tones. Operating the vehicle without audible turn signals or proximity chimes creates significant driver distraction and an immediate hazard to traffic safety. Dealer / service confirmation: the issue occurs intermittently during daily operation and is being reported to Volvo dealer service prior inspection: the vehicle has been inspected by Volvo service department symptoms & onset: the problem began following a recent android automotive os software update. No warning lamps, error messages, or indicators appear prior to the failure. The entire audio bus shuts off either at vehicle start or mid-drive. The only temporary workaround is forcing an infotainment reboot by holding the center display home button for 20–30 seconds, but the complete audio failure recurs every few drive cycles.
