Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)The 360 camera system stopped working on my 2025 Volvo XC60 PHEV today without warning. When I put the vehicle in reverse, the camera view window showed up on the screen with a top down of the vehicle, but the surroundings were black and each camera symbol showed up as orange with a cross out through it. Rebooting the system twice did not solve the issue. The software version is 3.7.0 which is the most up to date release.
My 2025 Volvo XC60 Plug-in hybrid Ultimate package was built with laminated rear passenger windows. The car is less than one-year old and both rear passenger windows are very cloudy (see attached), obstructing the vision of the driver in situations such as when changing lanes or parking. This could easily contribute to an accident on the highway or endanger children or pets in driveway conditions. The occurrence of this defect can be found in multiple social media posts and appears to be limited to the XC60 model with the Ultimate package. My Volvo dealer agreed that both windows have significant cloudiness during my August 2025 service visit. Even after submitting photos of the cloudiness, Volvo corporate, while acknowledging the condition, refuses to remedy the defect.
The rear side windows on my 2025 Volvo XC60 B5 Plus AWD exhibit a persistent “smoky” or hazy appearance when viewed through the rearview mirror or directly from inside the cabin. The issue is most noticeable during daytime when light hits the glass at an angle, or at night when headlights from other vehicles shine through the rear windows. The affected glass appears to have a bluish or foggy tint that creates a distorted or “cold” appearance, reducing rearward visibility. This appears to be a defect with the window glass itself—possibly related to factory tinting, lamination, or an optical coating. The windows are original and available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: This visual distortion significantly impairs rear visibility, especially when relying on mirrors at night or during lane changes. It compromises safe operation of the vehicle by creating unclear visual cues. Passengers and other road users are at risk due to reduced driver awareness of approaching vehicles or obstacles. Dealer Confirmation: I have not yet received formal acknowledgment or confirmation from the dealership, but I plan to raise the issue at my next service appointment. Online forums and other owner reports suggest this is a known issue affecting multiple recent Volvo models. Inspection: The vehicle has not yet been inspected for this issue by Volvo, police, or insurance representatives. I am willing to make the vehicle available for inspection. Warning Messages: There were no warning lamps or dashboard alerts associated with this issue. The condition was present from the time of delivery and has not worsened but remains consistently visible.
Both my rear windows have a haze on them, which interferes with my visibility in direct sun.
