Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 NISSAN FRONTIER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON EXTERNAL EXAMINATION OF THE VEHICLE SHE NOTICED THAT THE SIDE REFLECTOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHTS HAD FRACTURED AND FELL INSIDE OF THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. HEADLIGHT MALFUNCTION REDUCES VISIBILITY, WHICH THUS INCREASES THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY AND VEHICLE CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, IN WHICH A TECHNICIAN CONCLUDED THAT THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 44585. UPDATED 10/09/09 *CN UPDATED 10/16/09
THE PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY IS WARPED WHERE THE SILVER DIVIDER IS BETWEEN THE TOP AND BOTTOM ALSO THE SIDE AMBER DEFLECTOR INSIDE THE ASSEMBLY IS BROKEN. THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP BOTH THE REFLECTORS INSIDE ARE OUT OF PLACE, THE LARGER ONE HAS SLID DOWN WHERE THE MAIN HEADLIGHT IS. YOU CANNOT GET INSIDE THE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY TO REPAIR THESE. THE ONLY OPTION IS TO REPLACE THEM. NISSAN REFUSES TO REPLACE THEM BECAUSE MY WARRANTY IS NO LONGER VALID SINCE I HAVE OVER 36,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE IS A 2008 NISSAN FRONTIER. I HAVE NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT. I HAVE NEVER REPLACED THE BULBS. *TR
