| Description of the problem | The low beams are at the point where it almost looks like they are not on. I have replaced the bulbs, didn't help at all. I adjusted the 2 different adjustment pieces, one is under the hood and the other is behind the inner fender. That didn't correct it. I called nissan and they are not aware of this issue . I did see on a nissan form listed as www. Nissanproblems. Com/altima-projector-headlights/ ,that a lot of people are having this issue with what is called the 5th generation altima. Which is considered a 2013-2015. I believe this issue should be considered a safety hazard. This problem occurs when it is dark out and the headlights are on to see, whether or not your moving or standing still. |
