EVENT DATA RECORDING DEVICES
Your Volvo vehicle is equipped with a device generally referred to as an
“event data recorder” or “EDR.” Please note that while the term “event
data recorder” is typically used throughout the motor vehicle industry,
not every EDR is the same; i.e., they do not all record the same data
elements. The EDR on your Volvo vehicle records vehicle speed,
engine rpm, time and date, plus a variety of pedal and switch positions,
both before and after an “event.” Sudden vehicle deceleration or the
occurrence of certain other vehicle operational characteristics will
define (trigger) an “event.”
If you have a question about your EDR, please contact your Volvo
dealer or regional service office.
