This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.

I have intermittent failure of the dipped beams in my 2001 Volvo V70 T5. I see an error report on the dash: Bulb failure. Dipped beams. But there is nothing wrong with my bulbs. There is an electrical problem that is totally unpredictable leading to loss of low beams. Volvo service managers say they don't know what causes the problem. Am I the only person to report this defect? it started about 2 years ago in the winter of 2003 but is now more regular but not always.
Bulb failed and bulb failure warning light came on on way home from dealership. We returned to dealership and they said they were not aware of any problems with this component on this model. They attempted to repair but were not able to repair because they did not have a service technician on site. They offered another car but we declined. Signal has been intermittent since the first incident.
