Consumer Description

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS SO DIM THAT THEY PROVIDE ALMOST NO LIGHT TO SEE THE ROAD. I'VE SEE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM MANY NISSAN ALTIMA 2013-15 OWNERS. THIS IS UNSAFE AND NISSAN WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE THIS. IT HAD BEEN GETTING WORSE OVER THE PAST YEAR. I REPLACED BULBS BUT THEY DID NO GOOD. PROBLEM IS IN HEADLIGHT REFLECTOR HOUSING WHICH REFLECTS BULB'S LIGHT. LINING DEGRADES/BURNS OFF AND LIGHT THEN GETS ABSORBED, NOT REFLECTED.
