Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2017 V90 V90.
The 2017 Volvo V90 V90 is an SUV powered by a V90 engine, paired with an Automatic (S8) transmission and EPA-rated at 22/30/25 mpg. Reliability data show just 3 owner complaints, with air bags cited as the top complaint area, and 2 recalls on record.

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.
The JSON provides federal‑record data only for 1993, 1997, and 1998, showing 1 complaint in 1993, 1 complaint in 1997, and a rise to 27 complaints in 1998 with one investigation. No complaint, recall, investigation, or TSB figures are listed for the 2017 model year, so the year‑by‑year trend cannot be extended to the target year. Consequently, the data do not specify whether complaints increased, decreased, or remained stable for the 2017 V90 relative to surrounding years. Because the federal record lacks any 2017‑specific numbers, there is no basis to judge its reliability from this source alone. Therefore, based solely on the available information, a concrete takeaway is that the 2017 Volvo V90’s suitability cannot be assessed from the federal complaint/recall record and further vehicle‑specific research is warranted.
