In the last 6 months I have lost total braking ability 3 times while driving. The dealer is sighting a broken T-connector on a low pressure hose as the problem. Contacted the regional customer service. After 3rd time, without root cause analysis they said that they would replace with a brass T-connector, which to date they can not find. They consider the car safe to drive since brakes work currently, however they failed without warning the last 2 times. I was lucky enough to be in places where no accident occured. I did roll through a toll booth, stop sign on the first two occurances. Dealer will not reveal if this is a design defect, parts defects or something specific in this automobile. This car is not safe to drive on the road but Volvo seems to not take it seriously.
