Volvo ***Lifetime*** Exhaust Warranty - Need Documentation 200

Since 2005 I've bought OE Volvo Cat-back Exhaust kits exclusively. The friendly price I got made them as cheap as aftermarket. Although, I didn't like the over-the-axle mid-pipe they came with, I was told that was the only way they came, and, after all, the parts where authentic Volvo.

Yesterday, I had a reminder of why I do not care for that over-the-axle format when I found a front muffler with an outlet broken right where it enters the socket of the mid-pipe. It seemed I got few miles out of that exhaust system, but I did not realize how little until I checked - the damn thing queefed out after 5 years but only 14 Kmi!!!

So, now I'm left to try to get the local dealer to honor the Limited Lifetime warranty on Volvo mufflers which has often been spoken of on the Brickboard. When I called the dealership, the parts guy said in the entire time he's worked there (the entire 5 years) he never heard of a lifetime warranty for Volvo mufflers, but, if I could show him some documentation stating such, he would take it up with his district representative.

Does anyone know where I can find any type of documentation which might be used to substantiate this claim?

Thanks one and all,
