I've owned the EX30 for approximately 3 months. During that time, there have been approx. 5 incidents where after backing the car from a parking spot and switching to drive mode, the entire navigation screen goes blank and the screen displays the car as being in reverse mode. After being advised by Red Bank Volvo, NJ that this likely would be rectified during a major software update, I installed 2 major updates without a resolution to this problem - shortly after the 2nd update, I experienced the issue again. On 11/7/25 I brought the car to service and was told there were no error codes and software was up-to-date so they could do nothing. I called Volvo Customer Service to report the issue, and they advised bringing the car back to service, where a remote diagnostic assessment could be performed with corporate service. I was not advised by Red Bank Volvo that this was an option.

On February 26, 2025 at about 3 - 3:30 p.m. I was turning into a parking space in a parking lot. I stopped my car just outside of the parking space and was turning left into the space. I lightly pressed the accelerator, as I have done hundreds of thousands of times since I started driving 57 years ago. The car accelerated, leaping forward and revving so fast that the car drove over a concrete divide (about 5 inches above the ground and 2 feet wide), flattened a sign, and landed on two cars that were parked on the other side of the divide. It was daylight and sunny. There were no obstructions.
