2004 Volvo S60 Exterior lighting Problems

“About every 2-3 month when I go to start my Volvo S60 the front left light blows out. I have had my car for a little over a year and have had to replace the headlamps 5 times. The first time I changed the lights I did not wear gloves so it could have possible been my fault. Everytime after I have worn gloves to change the lights and still have the same problem.”

“I own a 2004 Volvo s60r that has turn signal issues. There was no event leading up to the failure. Simply one day it no longer worked 100% of the time. When using the turn indicator stock to signal a left turn it will not do so if I fully depress it into the lock position. If I hold it only part of the way before it locks into the position it sometimes works. If I do put it into the fully locked position and turn the steering wheel sometimes it may work and sometimes it may not. This only effects the left turn signal and not the right. …”

“Purchased auto new. It would seem that I have had some of the same problems mentioned by others. Car stalling on highway at 65 miles per hour, twice, very scary. Pulled off and restarted. (fuel pressure sensor malfunction) seems there is a recall however when I inquired my VIN # was not included. Costly repair as must purchase part from dealer. Driver side head lamp, low beam, has been replaced so often lost track, over half a dozen times, is out now! Have never replaced passenger side lamp! I point out the other S60's I see on the road with a headlamp light out to my kids as a game now.”

“When turning a corner, the engine stopped, steering stopped working and lights on dashboard come on. This happened a second time two days later. Took to independent mechanic and he checked all work he had done in the past plus checked the whole car out and he could not find why the car stopped. Two days later the car again stalled out when in traffic - engine stopped, steering stopped working and lights on dashboard came on. Last two times this happened I was driving on a straight road. This has happened 5 times now in the last week. …”

“Bulbs continuously burns out causing errors that cannot be readily fix by the owner. Bulbs such as for headlights, turn signals and rear lights burn out constantly. We are averaging a bulb replacement every 2 months.”
