IS FCP Groton going bad?

I am not looking JUST for Brembo. I am looking for a reputable brand of which I know at least three. Brembo, Ate, Zimmermann. I called my local indie Volvo shop and the mechanic there could not be more emphatic about AVOIDING Nordic. He had nothing but bad luck with it. So you as a company may want to rethink offering them. Ate and Zimmermann according to the mechanic are very much available, Brembo being more scarce and not as good any more (made in Mexico now). Ate and Zimmermann is all this guy will put on the Volvos he services because as he said, he does not want come backs and he had comebacks with Nordics and other brands. They rust out and wear out in less than a year and his customers are back doing the brake job again. not exactly desirable outcome. So, as you see, this is a little unrelated to your database fixes. You as a parts supplier to the Volvo DIYers need to provide brands of parts we all trust otherwise we will not shop with you. Brakes are something that most people do not want to experiment with.
