| Description of the problem | Initially i thought my eyese were going bad, but after researching, there is recurring incidence of of consumers reporting dim headlights. Its to the point that i try not to drive at night, and if i do, i have to use my high beams which poses a hazard to other drivers. Nisssan is aware of the problem, however is charging over $1000 to replace the headlamp assembly because simply replacing the bulb is not the solution. Http://www. Nissanproblems.
