you need to take the car back to them , let them sort it out .. It wouldnt be the first time i have known a "volvo specialist" fit non genuine parts ! if your garage wasnt a volvo specialist then it is most likely they sourced a general purpose alternator , how much did they charge you? a volvo one is about £400 . if it is not the alternator one way clutch in the pulley then see below ..
if this squeeky noise only happens first thing in the morning it could be water on the alternator belt which soon gets dispersed and there is a volvo dealer fix for , or volvo do a modified belt and tensioner to cure a squeeky aux. belt ..
