How this compares
Each register is compared on its own with the 60 models we publish an EU recall page for; the registers are never combined into one score. Its 29 EU Safety Gate campaigns are more than the median of 17 for this set. Its 55 KBA campaigns are more than the median of 34. Its RDW open-recall share is fewer than the 5.7% median.
Counts across sources are not comparable to each other and are never summed: a Safety Gate alert and a KBA campaign can describe the same defect or different ones. Treat each as one advisory pointer.
Typical mileage for the Volvo XC60
Pair these recall signals with the odometer distribution for the model year you are looking at:
Match the campaign’s production dates to the car, then ask the manufacturer or an authorised dealer to check its VIN and confirm whether the repair is complete. A model-level list cannot establish that.
