Nissan technical service bulletin NTB-03-074-C for 2001-2010 Nissan Altima, 2007-2010 Nissan Rogue and 2001-2010 Nissan Pathfinder and others.

Bulletin number: NTB-03-074-C
Component: Exterior lighting: headlights
Summary: Nissan: exterior lamp fogging. Occasionally water is noticed in the exterior lamps. This is generally not due to a defect. All current exterior lamp assemblies are vented to the atmosphere (not sealed). This is necessary to allow for expansion and contraction of air from temperature variations (warmer or colder) without damage to the lamp. Moisture in the air sometimes travels into and out of the lamp assembly through these vents. Certain environmental conditions may cause moisture to condense. The fogging/cloudiness should disappear over time when the lamp is in a dry environment. No models listed.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 354 complaints in the lights category.
