| Description of the problem | Headlights have been very dim for years and now are way worse. I can't see at all to drive at night, except when i drive with my lights on bright constantly and even those aren't great. I have had no one flash me with my brights on, if that is any indication of how bad they are. I have had many almost accidents because of this. This is an extremely urgent safety issue. I love my car and there is nothing wrong with it, except for this. Nissan needs to do something for its customer's safety. I am looking at trading it in because of this even though i really don't want to and never buying nissan again. ( i own three nissan cars presently and this one is just horrible.) |
