During the last big rain in California, which is not that common, my passenger side headlamp went out, and seemed to have condensation it in. I went to OC Nissan to have the bulb replaced, and they told me that I have "a bad seal" on my headlamp assembly, and that it needs to be replaced. They made sure I was sitting down when they told me that the repair would cost over $1,200. $950 is the part! This is ridiculous. I contacted Nissan consumer affairs, and still don't have a resolution. Is anyone else having this issue? ?

Like the rest of these people, I also have an 03' Nissan Maxima, And guess what?! my headlights got stolen twice within this year. The first time, both headlights were stolen and they ripped out the wiring taking along with it my main headlights, The HID bulbs and transformers. when i arrive called insurance blah, blah blah the usall... and file a police report just to be safe. the police officer who showed up to take down the info also had an 03' maxima and the week before my incident they hit em' up fo hiz lights too... part i decide to play it safe and not get the original lights fearing the same problem... so i bought some cool looking cheap after market lights of EBAY and just got some really strong Xenon bulbs..and you guessed it.. almost a eight months later i got jacked... the second time they only got away with the right headlights but i guess he got frustrated with the left and bashed it in... not only that scrathed up my hood with the tools he used...... and that not even the bad part....litterally arcoss the street is a fire department and up that block is a police precent were that cop's maxima lights were taken... THE 03' maxima is a really nice car it drive great they barely mechanic problems but if they take my lights again i might be force to sell it...i heard that the nissan dealership have some sort of headlight clamp to prevent theft...but that means they probably to more damage to your car to get the lights....good out there 03' maxima driver.....and if your lucky enough to have a garage, PUT THAT CAR IN THERE......
Like many others, I have a 2003 Nissan Maxima & my headlights were recently stolen. Nissan has a big problem with especially 2003 Maxima's as they do not provide a standard headlight option, & the Xenon headlights are very attractive to thieves. This is going to force me to sell my car!!! Ughhh. Nissan's security system & headlight anit-theft bracket is useless!Nissan should make a standard headlight option for 2003 Maximas!
My headlights have been stolen twice in the last 4 months!
