Headlights problem

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.
