Volvo did re-bond screens outside of the warrant period as it is a safety issue and ought to have been a recall. However, recently they seem to have declared that they are no longer going to support this repair so the end product is the same as what they told you.
If you are tenacious you could still pursue them on the grounds that a faulty bonded windscreen could lead to fatalities in the event of a crash as the screen is structural part of the body and if not bonded weakens the body in the event of a collision or could enter the cabin and injure/kill the occupants. You could then point out that they would be held responsible for selling a dangerous vehicle and taking no steps to correct their faulty manufacture might incur liability for them. For a car company that sells its products on the back of safety claims, that would be a disaster for them.
