Both Swedish car makers (Volvo and Saab) are having huge losses. Saab
has lost money 19 of the last 20 years, and are most likely bankrupt
without financial support from the Swedish government. They have said
that that support is not an option.
Volvo cars also have a challenging future, but will probably last longer

than Saab. Anyway, I would analyze risk of loosing warranty if buying a
new Volvo.

Ford isn't selling Volvo to China. They may sell it to Geely, which
is a car manufacturer in China. How would you lose a warranty if
ownership is sold again?
