Question Help - Just Bought a New XC60

I just bought a new Volvo XC60 3.2 FWD. This is my first time to buy a car that's not a Ford (well, I guess it was a Ford until a few months ago). Anyway, I'm starting to panic because I live in Springfield, Missouri, and the closest Volvo dealer is 160 miles away in Kansas City. Does Volvo have factory authorized service centers that might be local, that can service, maintain, and repair my new car under the factory warranty? Any info would be extremely helpful. Thanks!

Thanks for the responses. I figured I'd be ok w/ roadside assistance for the first 5/60,000. And I don't even mind driving to Kansas City every 7,500 for routine maintenance. I was just wondering if Volvo had authorized service centers through other dealers or something.

For the record, Springfield used to have a Volvo dealer, and I think I've discovered that it closed along with a round of Volvo dealer closings recently. That is unfortunate. Volvo is a great brand and the fact that I don't have a local dealer almost cost them a sale. I hope they decide to open another one here - there's certainly a market for it.

Thanks for the welcome and hope to see you all around the forums! I will post pics as soon as I get around to it
