2022 Volvo XC40 Recharge

While specific 2022 complaint and recall totals are not included in the provided year-by-year dataset, the trend across the generation is instructive: complaints dropped substantially from 40 in 2021 to 14 in 2024, suggesting improved reliability or issue resolution over time. However, recalls actually increased from 3 to 4, indicating that while complaint volume fell, Volvo continued addressing safety-related defects through formal recalls across this period. Technical Service Bulletins similarly declined from 249 to 161, implying that known technical procedures for dealers became less frequent. The 2022 model's leading complaint area—Back Over Prevention at 13 reported incidents—suggests sensor or camera-related issues were a notable pain point that year, with Forward Collision Avoidance also appearing among the top categories, while zero fire complaints is a positive data point. The absence of any investigations across the generation and the low crash complaint count (2) for 2022 provide some reassurance on severe safety failures. Given that 2022 sits between a higher-complaint 2021 and an improved 2024, it likely represents a mid-generation vehicle where early issues were being identified and addressed; combined with the continued recall activity through 2024, buyers should verify any outstanding recall repairs are complete, but the declining complaint trend suggests this is a reasonable model year to consider in the used market.
