| Description of the problem | 2013 nissan altima. The lights are so dim it is dangerous. Nissan says it is their part but they do not want to do a recall but want customers to pay 1000 to fix something that should have this issue with so many cars. A simple google search will show how many people mention this being a big dangerous issue. I have reported this for over two years and refuse to pay to fix the danger they are causing by not having the recall. This is causing drivers to use their high beams but those are dim too due to the faulty covers nissan has on the headlights. It is very dangerous to drive at after the sun goes down, in the rain, or in the snow. Consumer safety is not cared about. |
