Complaint Summary
EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS:CONCEALMENT DEVICES
Owner Narrative
THE PLASTIC HEADLIGHTS ON MY 1999 NISSAN ARE OPAQUE. THE LIGHT OUTPUT IS DIMINISHED AT LEAST 40%. THE DEALER WANTS $200 FOR REPLACEMENT OF PLASTIC HEADLIGHTS. I THEN NOTICED THAT MANY CARS THAT ARE OVER 5 YEARS OLD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, DIMINISHED LIGHTING DUE TO POOR PLASTIC HEADLIGHTS. I HOPE YOU CAN GET NISSAN AND ALL OTHER MAKES INVOLVED TO REPLACE THE PLASTIC HEADLIGHTS FOR FREE. *JB
