Volvo Car Group will recall 59,000 cars after some owners experienced their engines stopping and restarting while they were driving.
“The software issue may cause the engine and electronics to restart during the course of a second while driving,” said Volvo spokesman Stefan Elfstrom . “We have no reports of accidents.”
Elfstrom said there was no information available yet regarding the exact conditions when the restart occurs. The recall affects 2016 five-cylinder diesel versions of Volvo’s 60- and 70-series models.
