Volvo Position Statement: Scanning And Diagnostics - UPDATE
I-CAR · November 21, 2024 · Volvo
Summary
Volvo has updated its position statement to mandate pre-repair scanning before performing any and all work on a vehicle, and post-repair scanning for any work performed. The document outlines specific scenarios requiring these scans, including windshield replacements, bumper removals, sensor/camera replacements, and battery disconnections.
What to do on the job
Perform a pre-repair scan before starting any work and a post-repair scan after completing any work on all Volvo vehicles.
How to use it
Use this position statement to justify the necessity of pre- and post-repair scanning on all Volvo repair estimates. It is particularly useful for defending scan operations on minor repairs, glass replacements, battery disconnections, and bumper removals by citing Volvo's explicit mandate that scanning is required for 'ANY and ALL' work.
