From what you've posted, I conclude that the guys who worked on your brakes are bozos, crooks or both. I wonder if they even bled the brakes properly - that could cause your soft pedal. I would get a good Volvo manual (Bentley) and bleed the brakes with the help of a friend. The Bentley will serve you well in many ways, even if you choose not to do most of your own work; knowledge is power, esp. the power to spot bozos and crooks!
