What's wrong?
The roof center marker lights on 2026 Volvo Vnl (4) trucks are exterior lamps mounted high on the cab. They help show the truck's height and presence to other drivers, and they are part of the lighting equipment required for road use.
On affected trucks, the problem is inside the marker light assembly. During production, the terminal sockets were molded incorrectly. Those sockets hold the electrical connection for the lamp, so a poor socket shape can interrupt power to the light and leave the center marker lights dark.
There is no warning sign before failure. The lights can stop illuminating without a dashboard warning or a change in how the truck drives, so the issue is most likely found during a walkaround inspection or when another person notices the roof lights are out.
