2014 Nissan Maxima Lighting Problems

The contact owns a 2014 Nissan Maxima. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the headlights became inoperable. The contact stated that the headlights failed to function properly, and the lights were dim. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the headlight assembly had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 107,270.

Low beam headlights are extremely/dangerously low even if the lights are brand new. In my opinion it's extremely dangerous to drive with only my high beams on but thats the only way I can see at night theres no confidence in relying on my low beams.

The dim lights on the vehicle are very dim, the fog lights are brighter than the dim lights. I’ve replaced the bulbs and headlights and neither fixed the issue. You can barely see in front of the car with the dim lights. It’s very unsafe to drive at night.

Low beam headlights are dangerously low. No matter the quality of bulbs or the clarity of the lights the low beam headlights offer extremely limited visibility. Requires high beams when driving at night. I have had numerous mechanics look at the issue and it stems from a failure of the projector in the headlamp.

DIM HEADLIGHT

HEADLIGHTS ARE NOT BRIGHT AT ALL. AT NIGHT TIME, I ALWAYS HAVE TO DRIVE WITH MY BRIGHTS ON. CAN'T SEE TWO-THREE FEET IN FRONT OF ME AT NIGHT WITHOUT THE BRIGHTS ON. BLINKER LIGHT IS BRIGHTER THAN HEADLIGHTS. HAVE GOTTEN MY HEADLIGHTS REPLACED A COUPLE OF TIMES WITH NO RELIEF OF ISSUES.

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUSLY DIM. TRIED TO REPLACE HALOGEN BULBS WITH BRIGHTER ONES WITH ZERO LUCK. MAJOR HAZARD AND KNOWN ISSUE ON 2013-2015 MAXIMA AND ALTIMA.

HEADLIGHTS ARE VERY, VERY DIM. DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON IS VERY, VERY DANGEROUS AS THERE IS NOT ADEQUATE LIGHT BEING PROJECTED.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN MAXIMA ARE SO DIM IT TRULY IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. I LITERALLY CANNOT SEE 2 FEET IN FRONT OF MY CAR AT ANY SPEED. MY BLINKERS EMIT MORE LUMMIS THAN MY LOW BEAMS. NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AS I HAVE RESEARCHED AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF NISSAN OWNERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM.

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY 2014 NISSAN MAXIMA S ARE SO DIM THAT I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR AT NIGHT. THE HIGH BEAMS ARE AS BRIGHT AS THE LOW BEAMS SHOULD BE. WE HAVE REPLACED WITH TOP OF THE LINE BULBS & IT HASN'T HELPED AT ALL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE & NISSAN NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS BEFORE PEOPLE ARE INJURED BECAUSE THEY CAN'T SEE WELL ENOUGH TO DRIVE. ANOTHER ISSUE WITH MY CAR IS AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING AS THEY SHOULD. MY CAR COLLIDED WITH A 18-WHEELER ON THE INTERSTATE. THE 18-WHEELER CAME OVER INTO MY LANE LATCHING ONTO THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY CAR. ONCE I BROKE LOOSE FROM THE TRUCK, I VEERED INTO THE MEDIAN HITTING 2 ROAD SIGNS HEAD ON & MY AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. THIS HAS TO BE A DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS WELL.

WHILE USING LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT, LIGHTS ARE VERY DIM AND DANGEROUS TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. VERY DANGEROUS TO SEE AHEAD OF ME. I HAVE TRIED REPLACING BULB WITH LITTLE EFFECT. POSSIBLE THAT PROJECTORS ARE BURNT OUT AND WILL NEED ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT.

CAR WRECK AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND CAR IS TOTALED. *DT*JB

RECENTLY BOUGHT A USED 2014 NISSAN MAXIMA. THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ARE SO DIM THAT THE CAR IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR; OPAQUE AND YELLOWING MATERIAL INSIDE THE SEALED HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WHICH CANNOT BE ACCESSED. BOTH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLIES WILL HAVE TO BE CHANGED OUT, WHICH REQUIRES REMOVING THE BUMPER.

NOT LONG AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THE HEADLIGHTS WERE REALLY DIM AND LOW. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST THE BULBS. SO EVENTUALLY I BOUGHT BRAND NEW BULBS TOP SHELF WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TOOK TO SEVERAL SHOPS AND BASICALLY HAVE BEEN TOLD I WILL NEED A WHOLE NEW LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND IT HAS TO DO WITH THE PROJECTOR HEADLIGHT. MY ISSUE IS PAYING ALL THE MONEY ON A NEW ASSEMBLY IF I WILL CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME RECURRING ISSUE. I CAN NOT SEE AT ALL. I ALSO HAVE DONE RE SEARCH AND SEEN WHERE A LOT OF ALTIMA AND MAXIMAS BETWEEN CERTAIN YEARS ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. I WAS DIRECTED TO THIS WEBSITE TO FILE MY COMPLAINT. THIS SHOULD DEFINITELY BE RECALLED AND FIXED COMPLIMENTARY BY NISSAN

THE HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT ARE TOO DIM TO BE SAFELY DRIVEN. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS AND THIS HAS NO AFFECT. THERE IS A DEFECT WITH THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER MAXIMA AND ALTIMA OWNERS.
