Volvo just issued a recall for their LATEST 2008 XC70/V70 models. The recall is a software bug for deploying air bags. I almost bought the new xc70 but I need to rethink about it.
 
Not sure if it is the software bug issue for your sister's xc70.

The Kansas City Star recently did an editorial report that found an alarming number of airbags in cars of all makes have been found to have not deployed on impact. So far the NTSB has refused to investigate even though the Star estimates there have been thousands of lives lost as a result.

What is Volvo's Unique Selling Proposition? by blckislandguy

David Oglivy, one of the greatest ad minds to ever live, said that every product has to have a unique selling proposition. We all know FedEx's. What is Volvo's?
 
0-60 and handling performance? LOL
 
Great dealer body? Hardly
 
Reliability? No
 
Engine Longevity: Not as long as Volvo uses timing belts that need changing
 
Status? Not to anyone driving a German car
 
Foul weather capability? Its good if you have an AWD Volvo but not unique
 
Safety? Again, its good but not unique to the brand
 
Seating? Yes, its the best!
 
Don't know though how much volume you can get out of "our seats are the best"
