Could you elaborate a little more about which systems were affected in your Volvo I'm trying to ascertain if the issues are comparable In my SLC, it's primarily the Distronic Plus and Active Brake Assist that have ceased to function, along with associated warnings related to collision avoidance

That sounds frustrating I had a similar sensor failure problem with my older Volvo some years ago, although my issue was impacting the adaptive cruise control I am unsure if it will help, but could you perhaps indicate which systems are failing
