An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger car (Volvo Volvo XC90) - Repair. Defective engine cooling system (bleeder hose). ■ Defective component: Engine cooling system (bleeder hose). ■ Condition of the structure, equipment, or performance considered noncompliant with standards, and its cause: In the engine cooling system, the diameter of the connector on the hose (bleeder hose) connecting the reservoir tank and engine is smaller than specified in the design. This results in insufficient mounting strength, and some connectors may crack. Coolant may therefore leak and the warning light may illuminate, with a risk of overheating in the worst case.
