Problem with brakes on 2006 Volvo S40 T5. Severe screaching noise comes from brakes when in reverse. Volvo is aware of the problem yet they have not been able to resolve the issue. My Volvo S40 has had brake parts replaced 4 times. Each time I was told the problem was fixed. One month later, the noise is back. The noise is now back for the fifth (5) time.
