Condensation in Headlight
Like the title says i have some pretty bad condensation in my passenger side headlight, i have the LED headlamps. Has anyone else had a similar issue?
I'm bringing the car in for its 6 month service next week so the problem should be fixed then. I'm interested to see what happened, You'd expect headlights that cost over a thousand dollars a piece not to be having problems like this after only 6 months.

Sometimes these things just happen. I've had this before on a previous Toyota product. The headlight assembly was replaced under warranty without a fuss. Hopefully it will be smooth for you as well.

This is covered under basic warranty 4yrs/50k miles. Take pictures and show them to the service advisor. I've seen a fair amount of these bad headlights and replaced several of them. It seems to me that Lexus parts are getting crappier as far as quality over the last couple of years. It's more about quantity and not quality nowadays. Sad but true.

Thanks, Gentlemen.
Going to bring it to my dealer to see what they say.
And I hear re. the sad but true comment; too bad!
Better quality = less warranty expenditure too.

Since then i've sold the car though, so can't say if the condensation ever came back in the other headlight and needed to be replaced
