the oil pressure light came on for a second. I checked the oil and it was very low (despite having recently checked it before a trip. I brought it to the dealer and they let me know about the piston ring TSB. If Volvo decided that your car burns too much oil, they replace the piston rings.

Cons: oil pressure low, piston ring TSB

The piston ring design is faulty on Volvo's 2.0 drive-e engine from its 2015 introduction to halfway through 2016. They get fouled with carbon, allowing oil to blow by and leading to excessive oil consumption. I started getting low-oil messages right around 80k miles, and by the time I got it in for an oil consumption test it was burning a quart every 600 miles.
