I have ~15 years experience driving most make/models of class 8 trucks in alaska and lower 48 states. I have never operated any truck with low beam headlights so bad that i had to risk blinding on-coming traffic with my high beams in order to operate at all after sunset - until this one.the projector style lens sheds little more light on the pavement ahead than i expect from a clearance lampshop mechanics tell me that this is normal for all volvo trucks using the "vn" style aero-composite design.on the other hand, the high beam, fog and driving lamps are wonderful.this really is stunningly dangerous and needs an investigation.i'm mystified that nhtsa hasn't acted already.could it be as simple as worn out bulbs? ...incorrect bulbs?invisibly degraded projector lenses? ...degraded voltage to the bulbs?whatever is wrong, nobody seems to know how to fix it.and every night i operate, i worry that i might be blamed for an incident because my low beams keep me blind or because i blinded on-coming traffic with my high beams.how 'bout it nhtsa?this is your opportunity to fix something before people get hurt.please see also:http://www.thetruckersreport.com/truckingindustryforum/volvo-forum/168835-started-volvo-headlight-complaint-with-nhtsa.html.
