2013 Nissan ALTIMA Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1712124
Internal NHTSA #	11384200
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2013
File date	01/10/20
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The low beam driving lights aren't bright enough to safely illuminate the road. It is not due to old bulbs, but rather due to the design and materials of the reflector system surrounding the bulb which has deteriorated. High beams work fine. Low beams might as well be off as pedestrians, parked cars, stopped cars, are all not visible until within 20-30 feet in front when driving on otherwise dimly lit roads. I have run over a small curb that was not visible due to the poor lighting. I am concerned i will not have stopping distance in rain even at low speed, should a pedestrian suddenly be visible in the low lighting.
