Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The headlights have dimmed and can barely see at night. This is a very serious safety issue that is known by nissan and there are numerous issues reported all over the internet. This must be corrected by the manufacturer immediately before someone is seriously injured or killed. I own 2 of these vehicles and they both have the same issues with poor headlight projection! The headlight reflector deterioration is so bad that i can see the shadow of my car in my headlight beams from the car's headlights behind me. I do not feel that the owners of these vehicles should bear the cost for replacement of oem parts and/or aftermarket parts due to this issue being the #2 complaint on nhtsa website behind airbags and amounts to 15% of all complaints filed against the vehicle. The manufacturer should issue recall immediately for inspection and repair/replacement resolution by certified dealer.
