Headlights failing - I suggest you ask them to replace gratis S60

If a dealer replaced the bulbs, I'm sure they will replace them for free considering the first group only lasted 2 days. Also ask them to check voltage.

When the 1998-2000 V70 and S70 cars were new, people complained about headlight bulbs failing. So Volvo invented a circuit that lowered the voltage a bit. It was a wiring connector placed between bulb and harness. A byproduct was lower light output. I use Philips VisionPlus bulbs, which last for years, so I took the goofy voltage-lowering circuit out of my V70.
