Volvo uses a softer compound. I think they call them comfort brakes or something? I would always get about 40k miles out of my pads on my XC90. I switched to an Acura MDX and got 140k miles out of my pads. Volvo brakes work really well but I’ve never had a set last really long time.
Pros: work really well
Cons: don't last long
Vehicle:
Volvo XC90
Mileage: 64374 km
Canada here: paid around $700 CAD for rear brake pads and rotors at Canadian Tire back in May for my 2008 V70.
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:
Volvo V70
I took my XC40 to a local mechanic who only works on Volvo's and Saab vehicles and the cost for brakes, rotors, and oil change was $1200.
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:

For my 2016 V60 I only spend about $500. Also depending on your rotors and pads, there's no need to do both front and rear together.
Pros: inexpensive repair
Vehicle:
Volvo V60
I replaced the front pads myself after 25,000 miles (was 2 years ago), it cost me under $200, including all the necessary tools and original Volvo pads.
Pros: inexpensive, easy installation
Mileage: 25000 km
I recently had the brakes done on my 2016 XC 60 by my long-term mechanic. It was all four corners with pads and rotors. He charged $1300 Canadian (950 USD).
Cons: expensive
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
They let me use multiple coupons at once (all expired and all say that you can only do 1 discount).
For the account info:
The service tech checked my account and confirmed that only my contact information is on my account and printed it out for me. Then the other tech asked if he checked the scheduler? And they found the ex's contact information on the scheduler. He updated the information on the scheduler and then they both logged in on different computers to check, including scheduling an appointment for me to confirm that only my contact info is on there. Then the other tech checked again and confirmed that it was correct on his computer.
Pros: excellent service
Cons: multiple coupons issue
Vehicle:
Volvo XC60
Had my pads changed (Volvo service centre) at 30k ish miles, at the main dealer and the discs were fine.
Pros: discs were fine
Vehicle:
Volvo V90
Mileage: 48280 km
I have a 2019 XC40 and kept having brake issues - they ended up replacing the pads and rotors… at less than 15k miles. I continue to have issues (now it’s nothing serious, just a very loud obnoxious squeal)
Cons: loud obnoxious squeal

Mileage: 24140 km
