Both rear original-equipment tires on a 2025 Volvo XC60 plug-in hybrid (bought new mid-2025, approx. 20,000 miles) have developed bulges on the outer sidewall just below the tread shoulder. Tires are Pirelli Scorpion Zero All Season, size 255/40 R21 102V, Volvo-specification (VOL / PNCS). Driver-side rear: DOT 1XB RM582P 0325. Passenger-side rear: DOT 1XB RM582P 0325. Both failed tires are from the same production week (week 03 of 2025) and have failed in the same location in the same way. The two front tires (DOT 0325 and 0225) show no bulges. The driver-side rear bulge was first noticed in June 2026. The vehicle was inspected at a Volvo dealer on 09/10/2026; the dealer did not identify the passenger-side rear bulge, which the owner found the following day on close inspection. No known pothole, curb, or road-debris impact to either rear tire; the wheels have only minor cosmetic parking scuffs on the rim lips. Passenger-side rear tread depth is 4/32 in. A sidewall bulge indicates internal cord separation and risk of sudden tire failure at speed. The tires are still mounted and available for inspection. A Pirelli original-equipment warranty claim is being filed through the Volvo dealer; no manufacturer (Pirelli) inspection has occurred yet. No warning lights or prior symptoms. NHTSA already has complaints on file for this tire on the XC60, including a sidewall bulge at low mileage on a 2026 XC60.
