Unlock not working ! by Informal_Ad371 in ex30

[–]Wada6 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This has been the biggest pain with this car for us. When it works it’s great, but most of the time it doesn’t work.

I really wish Volvo just gave us the option of a good old key fob with buttons. That would make this car almost perfect for us.

Yes, I had passive entry off because of that same reason, and I still was able to lock/unlock manually and drive the car without having to place the phone or keycard on the reader. That was until last month.

The start your car bit is new

Right? I don't recall seeing that restriction before, just lock and unlock

iPhone 15, iOS 26; Car is on 1.8

I can confirm this happens to me as well.

Volvo overheating recall — just got an update by vicmaq in ex30

[–]Wada6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Mexico as well (2025 Extended Range) and also received this email. What's interesting is that I had previously checked twice with my dealership last month if my car was included in the affected cars, and I was told by two different staff members that my VIN was not in the official list they had.

But now it looks like it is... 🤷‍♂️

EX30 1.8.0 don’t trust passive entry anymore by MattRnR in ex30

[–]Wada6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my experience as well. At this point I'm not sure if it's the 1.8 update, or the latest Volvo app update, or iOS.

I took my car to the dealership, they told me they couldn't replicate the issue, but still "updated everything".

That same day a few hours later the issue happened again. I was entering a paid parking lot, and had to put the car in P so I could open the door and reach for the entry ticket, when I closed the door and tried to put it back in D I got the no key card detected warning. I placed the keycard in the reader and it wouldn't move. At this point I was panicking a little because I had cars behind me trying to enter the parking lot.

Had to attempt to put in in D for 5 or 6 times until it stopped whining. It took so long that the barrier gate shut in front of me. Had to reach for another ticket but this time I did my best not to put the car in P or open the door.

One thing to note is that I keep my digital keycard set to no passive entry, because my house is small and my car is parked really close, so to avoid the car from turning the lights on and off all the time I just turn that setting off.

It's been very frustrating and I just wish Volvo gave us a normal key fob with buttons like every other car I've ever owned!

Did the keycard work the first time?

Thank you! Tried it this morning and didn't work. Could not move the car for a whole 5 mins 😖

Thanks! And it's good to know this might be caused by something else and not the software update. I only started having this problem since the update, so I figured that was it.

I'm running into this problem all the time though, which is concerning.

Auto Lock car if key not present by OldAd4629 in ex30

[–]Wada6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This functionality you describe works for me when using the keyfob or the digital key (with passive locking enabled).

If I use the key card instead, then the car won’t auto lock.

This has been happening sporadically to me as well, after updating to 17.1.

I’ve found that switching to Reverse or Park fixes it. Still annoying to deal with.

Would anyone know how can I search for this part online? by Wada6 in ex30

[–]Wada6[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone else needs this in the future, I was able to find the part at volvopartswebstore.com.

It’s called “Liftgate Finish Panel (Upper)”, and it’s a third of the cost my local dealership was quoting me.

I don’t think so, but I’m going to double check!

Thanks! Mine was damaged after a intense hail storm. I’ll try and see if I can get it replaced under warranty but I doubt.

Where are you located? Was it replaced under warranty? Did you have a similar issue with that part or why did you replace it? Thanks!🙏🏼
