The average Volvo vehicle has a lifespan of 19 years, and LCA means paying attention to environmentally safe recycling and disposal techniques 20 years into the future.
Any Volvo manufactured after 1990 is a rolling bucket of problems. The engines and transmissions will last forever, but everything else on the car will $1,000 you to death. No repair is cheap and nothing on the car other than the engine and transmission will last much past the original warranty.
