Its well known that these cars suffer from belt failure. Its been happening for years.
It has been happening more since about 2017 when the 2010 and later cars have become neglected by their second and third owners and the aux belt not replaced every 54000 miles which is part of the volvo service schedule. Also the 108000 mile services are being missed or not done properly with volvo parts which is when all the belts rollers and tensioners are changed.
