In Houston, dew point and humidity are always high and I've never had such problems with my Nissans...I once had a problem with the foglamp of my Acura TL, but that was because there was a small chip in the lens

I just had mine in my tail light on the drivers side. It's in the reverse housing light area. I hope this will go away.

Exact same spot on mine (weird). I noticed after washing it (hand washed). I had condensation in the headlight of my previous car (2006 Charger R/T) and the dealer replaced it.

I might gonna' try going to the dealership first for a replacement instead of repairing it. Thanks for the info though Simota.

I just purchased a new 2010 370z in late December. We had a snow storm and now there is a decent amount of moisture in my drivers taillight assembly. It is in the clear part (for reverse?).

Has anyone had luck with getting dealers to replace? Or is everyone just "living with it"? Is this normal and to be expected?

The owners manual states that this is normal for the headlights, but does not specify for tail lights.

I have the same happening on the driver's driver's side tail light, just washed the car today and noticed it.

Did you end up taking it to the dealer? I just noticed your in PPark, I'm in St. Pete. I'm going to stop by Crown Nissan tomorrow to see what they say.

Nice to know. Next time it happens (bad enough to worry about), I'll take it to the local dealer.
