One would be better off buying an Alto instead of a Volvo, the man opined in a message pasted on the back of the tow truck carrying his car, a video of which has gone viral on social media.

"The alloy wheels of a Volvo car snapped in two," the owner of the car, which appeared to be a Volvo XC90, claimed in the message.

"Here, you can witness the stark reality behind the company's hollow claims regarding safety," the message said.

The company assumes "absolutely no responsibility" once a vehicle is sold, leaving one's life "completely at risk", it claimed.

"You can see this for yourself," the message stated, displaying the car with the allegedly damaged part.

A message sent to a Volvo Group media relations official did not elicit a response.
