Volvo's responsibility for loaner/ rental car during warranty work?

I had a problem w/ low power and engine oil light staying on. Dealer in Indiana tried replacing a sensor, but still had same problems. Volvo rep in Indiana authorized replacement of the oil pump, but could not give a time period of when they could accomplish the task. I trailered car home to local dealer near Birmingham, Alabama. Dropped car off at dealership on 31 Dec 2002. They replaced the oil pump & I picked it back up several days later, and on the way home the turbo went out (within 10 miles of the dealership). Volvo had the car towed back. They ended up replacing the engine under warranty. The repairs were completed, and the car was picked up on 31 Jan 2003. I had asked the dealership for a loaner during the month they had the car, but was told that there were no loaner cars available. I ended up with a rental car for the month it took for the repairs to be completed, at a cost to me of nearly $800. I would think that Volvo should take responsibility for the rental car. I am curious to hear if anyone else been fortunate enough to have had the maunfacturer take responsibility in a case like this.
