Volvo Car Usa, Llc
Defect Description:
UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Potential Consequences:
We were notified by email of a computer update to our 2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge (it stated it would automatically download the update then ask us to initiate the installation). The next day I was charging the car. The car is programmed for 1 pedal driving. After disconnecting the charger, I got into the car, put my foot on the brake, and placed the car in reverse. When I released the brake, the car just took off in reverse. It should not have moved until I pushed on the accelerator. I am theorizing that the car was either in the middle of the download or had just finished the download portion of the update. This problem persisted after I put the car in Drive. I drove about 2 blocks and parked the car. After about 10 minutes I put the car in Drive and it returned to the 1 pedal drive mode and the computer screen in the car showed a message that the update was ready for installation. The car drove normally for 20 miles to our house. We installed the update after arriving home. My wife drove the car the following morning. She experienced no further problems.
