Headlamp Housing - Condensation

[sduff]

 

I see its been a month or so since this thread has seen any action, but has anyone or any dealer found a solution to this headlight fogging problem yet? I just bought my new truck yesterday in Illinois, drove home to Alabama and immediately noticed that the lower portion of both lights have moisture/fogging.

 

Post a couple of pictures....A picture says a 1000 words...

Let me see if I can get a shot or two

Here is a quick shot of mine.... It actually looks better than it did a few hours ago. I feel like it makes the LED's at the bottom look like crap when they are on and the inside is foggy. Sorry for the huge pic.. I tried to resize it but obviously failed. Anyways, you get the point I'll get better pics in daylight when I get home from my business trip.

I'm going truck shopping in the morning. I'll let you know how many have fogged lenses in the dealer's lot. Most have been sitting their a long time.

They probably wont be fogged unless the lights have been on.

from what I found.. it has to raining or real humid

Well, if GM won't do anything about it, maybe someone will come out with a good looking set of aftermarket lights that won't fog up. This is ridiculous!

Its the dead of winter here. They fog up on mine too. Wont be seeing any rain for another couple months.

Mine do the same thing...going to go to the dealer after a few more tanks of gas to hit them with that and my stellar gas mileage.

I had the same issue, reported it and within 2 weeks My headlamps were replaced in January and the newer pair are slightly different design and have not showed any signs of moisture... Fingers crossed.

...the newer pair are slightly different design...

That's what the dealer told you?

Or can you visually see the differences? If so, what are they specifically? Pics?

 

Thanks.

You can visually tell the difference in the LED strip area. Everything else looks the same but the shroud area in front of the LEDs is different and the led color looks different, more blue than white. I will post a comparison pic if I can find an original picture

Here's the old design:

 

I'm really curious to see yours!

Here is what I have. Sorry for quality. Definitely a little more blue than yours...
