| Description of the problem | I am also having an issue with the low beam headlights being dangerously ineffective for night driving or inclement weather. It seems that their are more than an adequate amount of complaints filed to warrant some action. My daughter and grand children ride in this vehicle and there better not anything happen to them because of this. Nissan nor nhtsa have enough money to settle that lawsuit. Lights declined gradually. From online research i see that the issue is the reflectors inside the headlight assemblies. I have also changed to "brighter" bulbs, no help. I've researched aftermarket headlight assemblies and they also seem inferior. |
