Problem with Volvo automatic transmission
The problem you describe is a relatively common one with the Aisan auto Volvo uses. Volvo's fix is to reflash the TCM to alter the shift points, which seems to be what your dealer has done. Hopefully you won't have any more problems with it, but keep an eye on it.

Roadside assist
Brake fluid is 'hydroscopic', which means it absorbs moisture. So, over time, the boiling temperature of the fluid drops and that's a safety hazard. So the whole system needs to be either bled or purged, also to remove air bubbles that can also develop and hurt the braking performance.

Servicing the auto transmission is a good start and I would support doing that, but it could be something deeper that is causing your problem. It could be that it needs a rebuild, but you won't know until the mechanic checks it. Whatever it is, it needs addressing.
