Navigational (global Positioning System) Gps problems of the 2017 Volvo XC90

I am reporting a safety defect related to the vehicle connectivity module (vcm) in my 2017 Volvo Xc90. The vcm is critical for emergency communications, including automatic crash notification and location sharing with emergency responders. This function is vital for occupant safety in the event of an accident. My vcm was serviced at an authorized Volvo dealer in natick, MA in December 2024 due to intermittent connectivity issues. Despite this recent service, the vcm completely failed in mid-April 2025. When the module fails, the vehicle loses the ability to automatically contact emergency services and transmit its location after a crash, significantly increasing the risk of delayed or absent emergency response. I am aware that Volvo previously issued safety recall r39917 for 2017–2019 Xc90s regarding vcm software errors that could prevent gps location from being sent to emergency personnel. Volvo has refused to cover the repair, even though the failure directly impacts a safety-critical system that was already subject to a recall. This failure compromises the car’s core safety promise and leaves occupants at risk in emergencies. I urge NHTSA to investigate ongoing vcm failures in these vehicles, as the repairs have not resolved all safety concerns. Volvo should be required to address these failures to ensure driver and passenger safety.
