Headlights problems of the 2016 Nissan Rogue

I have been pulled over twice now because of passenger headlight out, and also the license plate lights out. When I went to replace bulbs both lights were in working order. The headlight was working when I first started driving. It quit while in motion. The license plate light quit working on a different occasion and I am not 100% sure if it worked when I first started to drive. I was pulled over and given a ticket. The next day I went to nearest auto parts store and purchased new bulbs. When I went to replace both bulbs they were both working. I obviously am unable to say if they both quit while driving, however I now check all lights before driving anywhere.

Passenger side headlight has moisture content inside the housing.

The contact owns a 2016 Nissan Rogue. The contact stated she saw moisture located inside the passenger’s side headlight that caused the bulb to be blown. The contact stated the headlight warning light was illuminated. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic and had the headlight assembly replaced. The vehicle was repaired but continued to experience the failure with the driver’s side headlight. The contact called the local dealer and made them aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 65,000.

I reported my steamed up headlight assemblies to Nissan while performing oil change and tire rotations early on after my purchase which was 12302016 so end of year model clearance. The moisture in the headlamp affected night visibility. Felt safety concern but told the small weep hole was part of the product design. Why would any manufacturer put a weep hole on the headlamp if it is sealed w/ gaskets & engine compartment assembly sealed w/ gaskets at bulb/wiring harness? while driving in snow/rain, dirty water enters the assembly causing the temporary fogging affecting vision, especially after a warm day and moisture trying to escape via evaporation. Only pure water can ever evaporate & debris dirt left behind is impossible for owner to clean as this is closed headlight assembly. Other complaint within a few years of ownership was the oxidation of the poor quality plastic used on the headlight assembly. I bought a car cover to reduce sun damage once I had issues since this affects safety/driving visibility. I cannot drive w/ high beams in a city. I only have 55k miles as I have other vehicles that I drive & am very disappointed as I must now replace the entire two headlight assemblies but do not want any oem product as I see their product as deffective and poor design. Major safety concern with visibility when using headlights which is ok if on due to rain during the daytime but night time visibility is terrible. Reported finally up the chain at Nissan but want to report to your safety division. I cannot believe they were able to get away with this design flaw & dismiss our concerns over safety for years. Told $2,000 for them to replace but I don't want their defective headlight assemblies so now forced to research and purchase elsewhere with no weep hole. All headlamps should be factory sealed and whoever thought this was a way to avoid issues with poorly manufactured and sealed headlight steam complaints just made situation worse!.
