2014 Nissan ALTIMA Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1615013
Internal NHTSA #	11277273
Manufacurer	Nissan North America, Inc.
Brand	NISSAN
Model	ALTIMA
Model Year	2014
File date	30/10/19
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Regular (low beam) headlights are extremely dim, despite me cleaning the exterior of the headlights and replacing the bulbs. Yesterday in north raleigh, nc, i ran over a low concrete divider separating the main traffic lanes and a turn lane, because i couldn't see it at all. The dimness seems to be particularly bad for peripheral lighting (which makes sense giving my example above, changing from one lane to another, and not seeing the concrete divider at all). From researching this issue online, this problem seems very common among 2013-2015 altima owners - apparently the headlight assembly's projection system degrades or wears out.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
