Yes, failures have been reported here. You might go to google.com and
search on:

volvo awd bevel gear

on the Web and in Groups to get a better idea.

I think the tire issue is a limitation of viscous coupled AWD systems.

The Haldex system (used in the Volvo S60 AWD) does not have this
limitation. You can also search on Haldex that and get a lot of info on
the basic AWD technologies in use.
