Volvo Free Software Update Available

As some of our customers have already heard, Volvo recently created a program offering lifetime complimentary software upgrades for most 1999 and newer cars ( early model S40, V40 and C70 are excluded ) 


 Why do I need new software? Because software evolves and makes your car more "fault tolerant", for one. As you probably know, there are many small computers in today’s cars. And like most computers, the software might need an update from time to time. Technical advancements move quickly nowadays, so it's difficult to specify exactly what an update in a particular car entails. It may involve things like optimizing the engine management system for increased efficiency, optimizing the climate control for airflow and temperature management or improving automatic transmission gear shifting quality. 


Volvo is continually developing new software and providing updates is a way for us to ensure that your car is operating at its best. Over the last few years, Volvo has taken service to new levels and now, Volvo will offer owners complimentary software updates for their late model Volvos. The program "Service for Life", applies to nearly all Volvo models made over the last 10 years. 


 Volvo’s new Service for Life program is good for any of its covered products, even if the vehicle is in its second and third owner. This should help the resale value of these vehicles if second owners can get the same service as a first owner. 


 In a nutshell, what you need to know is Popular Mechanix can offer this complimentary program, “Volvo Service For Life” for you, in our shop, right now. 


 As always, please schedule an appointment, either by phone or our DemandForce website Thank you for your ongoing business & support!
