I had the datadot anti-theft device that nissan came out with installed to prevent the headlights assembly theft problem. and guess what, they still stole the right side. the good thing is that the transformer was bolted to the frame of the car and was not stolen, the bad things is they caused more damage to the finder/hood and front bumper not only that, but a portion of the headlight assembly stayed in the car the damage was $2400.00 for one head light with body work. you cant use your turn signals if a headlight is missing very very unsafe and nissan should be held responsible for this design. *la | |||

I lease a 2002 nissan maxima. this car has a known issue regarding its headlights. the issue is 1) the headlights are very expensive 2) they are, therefore, well-liked by thieves and 3) they are very easy to steal. as a result, they are stolen frequently. one headlight assembly was stolen from my car last week. the car is not roadworthy without it. blinkers don't work. if one has no choice but to drive to a body shop, if the hour is late, if one is in an unsafe neighborhood, the car must be driven in such condition. this is a design defect that should have caused nissan to recall this model long ago. *la | |||

Theft of 2002 nissan maxima xenon headlights and grill causing over $3500 of damage. i believe that faulty nissan design has lead to widespread theft of these lights. according to local police, headlights can be stolen in one minute or less. nissan has turned a deaf ear to complaints other than theft deterrent kit which will not prevent would-be thief from damaging vehicle in attempt to steal lights. i believe nissan has responsibility to correct this awful situation. *nlm | |||

The hid headlights on my 2002 nissan maxima gle were stolen at about 12.30 in the afternoon while i was visiting a friend in downtown newark, nj. i took the car to the nearest dealer, nissanworld of springfield, nj. while there i met other 6 other maxima owners who had the same experience in other parts of nj. the service manager told us that 48 other maximas in hillside, nj had their hid headlights stolen. nissan ought to do something about this. some owners had their hid headlights stolen more than once. they have since been replaced but at additional insurance cost. *nlm |
