Description of the problem	The headlamps are extremely dim on my 2013 nissan altima. I have to drive with highbeams on to drive at night. I've been stopped by the police for having dim headlights. I've changed the bulbs and they are still dim. I've been told the headlight housing is defective and needs to be replace at the cost of over $800. This is a manufactures defect and nissan is silent on this issue. It's known that 2013, 2015, 2016 altimas have this same issue. This issue should be a recall. Please help, i drive with children in the car and i should be able to see at night. I dive in the city, at night and in the country, the low beams are low and i'm forced to use the high beams which is not safe for on coming traffic. Nissan should address this issue.
