Engine Mount Failure at 54K miles WTF??? S40-V40

Hello All,

I recently experienced an engine mount failure with my S40 T5 AWD.
No Mods were made to the engine, and there was NO collision.
The mounts simply failed causing damage to the timing belt and surrounding area, also the split bolts had to be drilled out and replaced.

My question is has anyone else experienced this?

The Dealer says that they could find no visible defect with the bolts. My response to that was "there is an obvious defect, they are now in multiple pieces."

I am currently dealing with Volvo to reimburse me for the repair cost that was incurred by a faulty part.

Any thoughts from the readers?

Thanks!
