2024 Volvo S60

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2024 S60.

Transmission Automatic (S8)

The 2024 Volvo S60 builds on the brand’s Scalable Product Architecture, pairing its conventional sedan silhouette with an S8 automatic transmission that delivers a respectable 26 mpg city and 35 mpg highway fuel economy, averaging 30 mpg overall. While the powertrain details remain consistent with recent iterations, the model’s modest 18 owner‑reported complaints and three recalls underscore a relatively clean slate compared with the broader S60 lineage, which saw its complaint peak at 238 in 2001 and a low of just one in 2000 across the 2000‑2018 span. Consequently, the 2024 S60 occupies a middle ground in Volvo’s reliability trajectory, offering incremental improvement over earlier trouble‑prone years without yet establishing a definitive record of flawless performance.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 10,000 mi; spark plugs every 60,000 mi; coolant every 10,000 mi. The big-interval services (every 10,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

The 2024 Volvo S60 arrives at the tail end of a clear, long-term downward trend in federal complaints for the nameplate, which peaked at 238 in 2001 and fell to just 4 by 2018. With only 9 total complaints logged for the 2024 model year, it continues this pattern of low reported issues, though the data shows a slight uptick from the 2018 low. The top complaint areas are led by a vague "Unknown or Other" category (4 complaints), followed by electrical system (2) and steering/forward collision avoidance (2), with one additional report combining steering, electrical, and engine concerns. Notably, 3 of the 9 complaints involve a crash, a proportion that merits attention, though no fire complaints are recorded. Overall, the 2024 S60 aligns with the generation’s mature, refined stage, and its minimal complaint volume suggests it is a sound used-vehicle choice, provided a thorough inspection of the electrical and forward-collision systems is performed.
