Description of the problem | I am told at the nissan dealer that they know that the projection lens on the headlights only last about 2 years and then the customer must spend about $1200 to replace the headlight assemblys. The dim headlights are so dim, on unlit roads, you must run the brights at all times in order to see the road and the curb. Nissan does not honor any type of warranty on this issue, however they have given their service dept a bullitin so that they know of this problem. This should be a recall. |
