| Description of the problem | Both of my headlamps are defective and nissan has recognized this as a manufacture's defect but has refused to issue a recall. They are only covering the parts and not labor. By accepting to pay part is an admission of guilt on nissan's part. The nissan dealer's mechanic (coral springs nissan 954-753-1700)has admitted this is a common issue in these type of vehicles. It is very difficult to see at nights with the headlamps and can cause a vehicular accident. An internet search will also confirm this is a common issue. Https://www. Cars.
