What causes vibration when turning in v70?
It could be Bushings or CV Axles causing your vibration. You can slide under the car try to turn the axles by hand with the tires on the ground. If the axles move at all they need to be replaced. Other than that a good alignment shop could tell you which bushings need to be replaced and what condition your tie rod ends and ball joints are in as these can also cause vibration.

Check the wiring harness to the back of the headlamp connector. They tend to rub against the frame near the headlamp and get cut, then short out. It may be as simple as relocating the bundle and adding some electrical tape to keep it from shorting.

Display shows "brake failure stop safely"
This is a known tech issue with MANY models of Volvo. The problem lies in the electrical connections in and between modules and sensors. Even seasoned Volvo techs have a hard time with this problem. I would definitely take it to a dealership and get a troubleshoot & diagnosis done. As far as I know, there are tech bulletins on the issue, but no recalls. A dealership would have the most recent and effective repair solutions to perform after doing a diagnosis.

How to replace power steering pump on 1998 Volvo v70
Place the vehicle in park or neutral with the emergency brake. Let the engine idle. Raise the hood and remove the cap on the power steering pump reservoir. The cap will have a plastic dipstick on the end of it. Wipe the dipstick portion with a rag and screw it back down on the reservoir. Unscrew the lid and check the level indicated on a marked scale on the dipstick. The level should read at the top "Hot" mark. Low fluid level will cause the pump to whine. Fill to the appropriate level and listen for noise.
Inspect the condition of the power steering fluid with the cap off the reservoir. It should be translucent red and slightly thick to the touch. Brown, black or sudsy-looking fluid indicates contamination. Power steering fluid that has lost its viscosity (thickness) cannot properly lubricate the seals, bearings and vanes inside the pump, which will cause a high-pitched whine or squealing noise. If the fluid feels gritty between the fingers, it means rust, metal shavings and dirt has entered the reservoir.
Use a slot screwdriver to loosen the low-pressure rubber hose clamp on the bottom side of the power steering pump reservoir. Catch any drippings in a pan. Loosen the high-pressure metallic line nut on the power steering pump body with a fuel line wrench. Let the fluid drain into a pan. Remove the reservoir cap and use a used turkey baster to suck out all of the power steering fluid. Clean the inside of the reservoir with a rag wrapped around a screwdriver.
Reconnect the rubber low-pressure side hose and tighten the clamp with a slot screwdriver. Screw the metallic line nut on by hand and finish tightening it with a fuel line wrench. Fill the reservoir with new (manufacturer's recommended) power steering fluid to the top mark. Start the engine and listen for noise.
Test the tension and condition of the serpentine belt, or the individual power steering belt. The belt should not be cracked or contaminated with oil or power steering fluid. Clean the belt with alcohol. Adjust the (individual) belt for tension, using an end wrench to loosen the adjusting bolt, and a socket and wrench to slightly loosen the pump mounting bolts. Pry the pump outward with a screwdriver to tighten the slack in the belt. Tighten the adjusting bolt with an end wrench. Tighten the mounting bolts with a socket and wrench.

Sounds like you may need to change your fuel filter. A dirty fuel filter will make it take a bit to make sufficient fuel pressure which will cause a rough idle or low power until it has run long enough to build up proper fuel pressure.
