Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: While driving at night, i had the headlights switched on. the interior dashboard lights were lit and no warning lights were on. as i drove into a less lighted area, i noticed that my headlights were in fact not lit. i confirmed that the switch was on, which they were. i confirmed that no warning lights were on. later, i had the headlight switch replaced, which fixed this problem. very dangerous problem. my volvo mechanic told me that a defective headlight switch was a common problem. i told him that there was a recall for the 1998 volvo s70, but not the 1999 volvo s70, for this problem. he was amazed because he said that both cars use the same switch. *ph |
