 Description of the problemMy car is barely 4 years old, i'm in my early 40s and i'm very nervous driving at night, especially when driving on dark back roads. If a car is coming from opposite direction i lose sight of the lines on the road & have to depend on the car coming at me to judge where i should be. It's 10x worse when there's a newer car with the bright led lights. They are blinding. Even when behind me, i have to move my side mirrors. The reflection is too bright and affects the poor line of sight i have to deal with due to my very poor headlights. I'll also add that i have tinted windows that don't help to block these lights. I did ask my eye dr & he told me lots of patients have complaints. I did read that previous year altimas have poor headlights. Apparently, it has to due with the headlight assembly, which is a nissan problem. Below is the site i found with info on it. My friend has a 2018 altima and she can't see at night either so i felt it was important to try to do something. Http://www. Nissanproblems. Com/altima-projector-headlights/ one last statement i'd like to make. I had a 2008 altima before this one and maybe spent $500 in repairs over a few years. I got this 2016 altima in february 2019, currently has less than 70,000 miles and i just had the transmission rebuilt. Had strange acceleration issues sporadically and the dealership couldn't recreate the issue. I took video of the car when it happened so i had documented proof. 2 weeks ago the issue started and didn't go away this time. Had pedal to the floor, stuck at 30 mph and rpms at 5000. Work was just finished last week that would've cost me around $4000 if it weren't for my warranty. About a month ago i did get a class action lawsuit notice to nissan regarding the cvt...... And weeks later i was one of the unfortunate ones who was burdened and stressed.
