Headlights problems of the 2000 Volvo S40

Two different mechanics informed me that the casing in both of my headlights was deteriorating and would need to be replaced.

The contact owns a 2000 Volvo S40. While driving 65 mph, the engine stalled without warning. The contact was able to pull safely off the road. The dealer stated that the failure was caused by coolant leaking from the engine. The cause of the leakage was unknown. The contact had a maintenance package performed on August 9, 2007 and no failures were found in the engine. The current and failure mileages were 98,000. The consumer stated she expects to be reimbursed the full $3,000 for repairs. The consumer stated upon maintenance repair the passenger side headlight was out and needed to be replaced. Updated 12/12/07.

Dealer replaced, in the past two years, headlights/alternator/tail lights, and signal lights, but the problem was still occurring.

The head lights failed.

Headlight burned out for 2nd time in less than 30,000 miles.

2000 S40 purchase new. I have replaced 8-10 headlights already. Vehicle has been costly to maintain. Dealer has taken a minumum of 3 visits to locate problems. None has been resolved completely. Brakes pads replace at 37k- my cost- delar said they wore thin. I have them check the brakes every time I get an oil change - to feel safe. Problems with high pitch whistling noise staring at 60 mph took back several times not able to stop noise before warranty expired. Recently: vehicle ran rough took in to delaer for 90k tune-up. Dealer said bushing on motor mounts are gone cost to replace is $800. Noticed the drivers side power window going out now.

Headlamp buld burned out (12380 miles).
