| Description of the problem | I noticed last year that my low beam headlights were really dim, literally the fog lights illuminate farther than the low beam lights. I bought new bulbs that were led and my high beam lights are really bright, however the low beam lights are still just as they were before. I did some research online and found that many nissan altima 2013-2015 owners were experiencing the same issue. This is a very serious issue when driving at night, if you can't see without your bright lights on!!! Why has there not been a recall done on the headlights yet???? Surely something can be done about this before there is a tragic wreck because a driver can't see two feet in front of the car while going down the road. |
