Suspension bushings S80

I guess Volvo can't make bushings that last either.

Already had the '01 S80 in to replace front suspension bushings that clunked in the Right front suspension about 5000 miles ago.

Now the same thing in the Left front area. Plus the motor mount visible on the top of the motor under the hood is also visibly torn.

Any recalls for these faults? Where are the other motor-mounts or bushings? Are they available for easy visual inspections? Anyone else with these complaints?

Finally, are there any aftermarket makers for the bushings? I have BMW's that have firmer subframe bushings available that really improve handling characteristics. Other thoughts?
