Description of the problem | My dim headlights are extremely low. Driving at night is a safety hazard due to the dim headlights. I have not reported this to my dealership after viewing other complaints with the same safety issue and the feedback from dealerships less than helpful. I know that headlights (bulbs) should be replaced from time to time. However, after replacing bulbs the problem still exists. The performance of the headlights, especially at night, is below industry standards. As of now this problem has been reported to nhtsa as a major safety concern. I have not discovered any real information from nhtsa, pro or con, on this issue which is concerning to me. I would hope that due diligence and follow up to consumers from nhtsa, about this complaint, is forthcoming or at the least directives are given as to resolutions to this safety issue. Also, purchasing brighter bulbs don't seem to fix the problem. I have tried that. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated concerning this headlight safety issue on my 2015 nissan altima. |
