Volvo integration stuck in setup_retry ("Unable to update data") even after full reinstall / fresh OAuth login
integration: volvo
### The problem
The Volvo integration has been stuck in setup_retry with reason Unable to update data for about two weeks. All ~78 entities for the vehicle have been unavailable the entire time. This matches the symptoms in
#163343 and
#158467.
I've already tried both suggested workarounds and neither fixed it:
Reload the config entry (homeassistant.reload_config_entry) — failed immediately with the same "Unable to update data" error, no change.
Full removal + fresh reinstall, including a brand new OAuth login to Volvo (new config entry ID, so this was not a reused/stale token) — failed immediately with the exact same error, on the very first setup attempt.
Since a completely fresh login fails right away, this doesn't look like a locally expired/corrupted token — it looks like either the Volvo Connected Vehicle API is rejecting/failing these requests, or there's a bug in how the coordinator calls the API.
### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue?
2026.8.2
### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core?
2026.8.2
### What type of installation are you running?
Home Assistant OS
### Integration causing the issue
Volvo (homeassistant.components.volvo, built-in core integration, not HACS)
### Link to integration documentation on our website
https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/volvo/
### Diagnostics information
Downloading diagnostics for the config entry itself fails:
Diagnostics fetch failed (HTTP 500): API error: 500 - 500 Internal Server Error / Server got itself in trouble.
No "Reauthenticate" repair/notification appears under Settings → System → Repairs, so Home Assistant itself doesn't flag this as an invalid-credentials situation.
Error log entries (component homeassistant.components.volvo.coordinator):
ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.volvo.coordinator] Error fetching Volvo very slow interval coordinator data: Unable to update data
ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.volvo.coordinator] Error fetching Volvo medium interval coordinator data: Unable to update data
No further traceback detail is surfaced beyond "Unable to update data" (the coordinator's UpdateFailed message appears to swallow the underlying API error detail).

### Additional information
Steps to reproduce
Have a working Volvo integration entry.
At some point (in my case, around 2026-08-05) it starts failing with Unable to update data and stays in setup_retry.
Reload the config entry → same failure.
Remove the config entry entirely and re-add it with a fresh Volvo login → same failure, immediately, on the new entry.
Expected behavior
Either the integration recovers automatically once Volvo's API is reachable again, or — if this is a persistent account/API-key issue — Home Assistant surfaces a proper reauthentication/repair flow instead of silently retrying forever with a generic "Unable to update data" message.
Additional context
Vehicle VIN redacted here; happy to provide via the auto-attached diagnostics if maintainers need it.
