| Description of the problem | Low beam headlights are very dim. When i first bought the car they were so bright that i was getting brights flashed at me with people thinking i had my high beams on. Now they barley are bright. It is very hard to see at night unless i have my high beams on. I thought it was the head lamp itself but i have replaced them. I have also had to replace my low beams 4 times since i've owned the car for them burning out. Once at the time. After reading so many complaints about it, why isn't nissan taking care of this issue? I love my car but hate the headlights. This has been an on going issue for the last 3 years. |
