Is the XC40 D3 / D4 affected by this recall?

"The problem affects cars from the models years 2014 to 2019 with four-cylinder diesel engines.
It is not clear how long it will take for the company to fix the affected vehicles but Volvo said: "We will do our utmost to perform this action without any unnecessary inconvenience." Volvo said it was contacting all customers whose vehicles are affected to alert them to the issue.
Drivers are being told it is "safe to continue to use your car" if it does not show any signs of a problem, such as an engine warning light illuminating, a lack of power or an "unusual smell""

Not according to this article:- https://www.autoexpress.co.uk/car-news/ ... -fire-risk

But you'd hear from Volvo if your car was affected.

Phoned by the dealer today to say that my car (2018 D4) is not affected by the recall.
D4 R-design in black.

The XC40 wasn’t listed as an affected model in the article I read in the paper
White T4 R Design Pro ordered 17/04/18 and supposedly arriving 30/09/18. Picked up 2nd October. :D

Thanks for the replies @deano @xbimmer @balmoral. Looks like XC40 not affected also checked on Volvo's website entered VIN and it tells you is subject to any recall, which my D4 was not.
