Headlights problem #1

: the contact stated the driver side headlight burns out at least once a year. The bulb has been replaced each time, but no further repairs have been attempted.

Brake Light problem #2

The vehicles left and right side brake lights do not illuminate when the pedal is depressed. I replaced both of the bulbs and they still do not work. There are many additional owners with the same problem according to Volvo forums on the internet. The vehicles information system continually reads that there is an airbag problem, even though the airbags have never been activated/deployed. The instrument panel and dash lights flash on and off randomly.

Turn Signal problem #3

The dim/driver information manual/dashboard display broke. This is a safety issue due to the loss of warning lights and turn signal displays.
