Good Q? V70-XC70 1998

I work for a Volvo dealer and other than here, I have yet to see or hear of this occuring with ANY X70 car.
I'd suspect that if a X70s wiring harness burned up, it wasn't caused from anything being normal, like perhaps someone wired an aftermarket amp incorrectly or the car was in an accident and the harness was damaged from that.

Now, the older 200s/700s did have POS wiring harnesses that after years of heat, many miles and oil dripping on them, the plastic wire insulation fell off or disolved causing major problems (rarely a fire however) BUT I havent seen that happen yet to any newer car (900s on up).
