Attorney General Harvey Sues Nissan Alleging It Failed to Provide Adequate Notice to Consumers Regarding Xenon Headlamp Thefts and Security Kits
NEWARK - Attorney General Peter C. Harvey has filed suit, through the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs, against Nissan North America, Inc., alleging the automobile manufacturer knew that headlights on 2002 and 2003 Nissan Maximas were being targeted by thieves but, for more than a year, did not warn consumers about the problem or notify owners and lessees of the cars about the availability of devices to prevent the thefts.
The suit, filed today in Superior Court in Somerset County by Attorney General Harvey and Consumer Affairs Director Reni Erdos, alleges that Nissan violated New Jersey’s Consumer Fraud Act in connection with its sale and leasing of 2002 and 2003 Maximas. At issue are the manufacturer’s High-Intensity Discharge bi-level xenon projector headlamps. Xenon headlamps emit an intense blue light, which Nissan represents as being 150 percent as bright as traditional halogen bulbs and more like natural sunlight. The company has represented that the headlamps, which have an independent power supply, make the car more visible to other drivers.
Maxima owners who have had xenon headlamps stolen have paid about $1,800 for reinstallation of the headlamps – more in some instances, due to additional damage caused by the thieves.
“Protecting New Jersey consumers is a top priority of my administration,” said Governor James E. McGreevey. “We’ve taken steps to strengthen consumer protection laws and to aggressively enforce existing laws. We’ll continue to fight to ensure that New Jersey residents get a fair and honest deal.”
