What the reviewed source says
Start with the documented condition, not a parts guess.
NHTSA lists the 2017 Volvo XC90 in safety campaign 17V104000. The official record says: The bolts that secure the Inflatable Curtain (IC) air bags in place may break, possibly resulting in the IC air bag deploying improperly in the event of a crash. The stated safety consequence is: If the IC air bags do not deploy properly in the event of a crash, the vehicle occupants have an increased risk of injury. A make, model and year match does not confirm that a specific VIN is included or that the repair remains open.

Read the method beside the problem
These guides explain the safety and evidence checks that apply to this problem file.
Check recalls by VIN
A VIN search checks the displayed NHTSA records for an unrepaired safety recall associated with one vehicle. A model search shows only the wider campaign population.
Read guide ↗When a car is unsafe
A warning light does not always mean the same thing, but weak brakes or smoke leave little room for experimentation. Damaged tires and certain recall instructions can do the same.
Read guide ↗Why symptoms overlap
“It makes a weird noise” is useful human language. Diagnosis begins when that language is tied to the exact vehicle and its operating conditions.
