| Description of the problem | We bought the altima new in 2013. After three years, the headlights started getting dim. Now it is unsafe to drive at night. High beams work great, but unsafe to use on two way roads. Went to local nissan dealer, and there is no recall, and i would need to pay $1200 to replace headlights. This is a known safety issue, and needs to be corrected by nissan. |
