Description of the problem	I am writing a complaint about the visibility with use of the low beam headlights on the 2013 nissan altima. On a highway with no streetlights visibility is only approximately 3 feet with a sharp cut off. It is very hard to see road hazards until it is too late to stop. When on coming cars pass visibility of the line on the either side of the road is very minimal. On secondary roads with no line visibility of either side of the road when there is an on coming car is practically not there forcing me to slow my speed drastically to keep from either running off the road or hitting the on coming car. I have made serval attempts at new headlight bulbs to try and ease the problem and only received marginal results with very expensive led bulbs. This problem has caused a few deer related accidents with my current nissan and would have easily been avoided had i had safe visibility.
