This doesn’t make me feel very good about Volvos now. I have seen several crash tests on current Chinese manufactured vehicles. Very scary. Some of these are Chinese knock-offs of high end German and Japanese vehicles.
Possibly some dup portions above. The Chinese are supposedly getting better, though in general with Chinese products, I am very careful. There is some very good mixed in with lots of crap. My drop box wrenches are made in Chinese, and are made of Chrome Vanadium – not mild steel. Much tougher than anything Sears, Snap-on or Matco put out.
