 Headlight wiring and connector burned causing light to go out. the dealer replaced the wiring and connector according to a tsb issued by volvo. dealer stated that they had repaired several volvos with this problem. although the dealer said this was a safety issue and volvo issued a tsb and provided a repair kit for repairs volvo does not consider this a safety issue. thankfully, only one light burned out at the time otherwise i would have crashed at 70 mph. dealer said both headlight wiring cables and connectors were burnt and they replaced both. i reported this safety issue to tennessee and kentucky consumer protection division. this one light went out on several occasions before i took the car to the dealer and discovered the safety problem. repairs made at my cost. *tr
