Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 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
