If you didn't touch your headlights, I don't see why the dealer would not service it.

As for the water in your fogs, you're probably on your own. Pretty easy to dry them out anyway If you just pull the fender lining back--> easy access.

Worth a shot letting them take a look at it.

thanks for clearing that up. as a suggestion for the future, you might want to make it clear what you're asking instead of leaving it to the rest of us to figure it out.

and yes, an authorized service center should be able to fix your headlight housing, assuming that they were NOT tampered with.

btw, no, you can't just "return the car" if they don't fix your headlight housing - or for any other reason at that. there's no "cooling off" period in california. so in your situation, after signing the papers for your 2is, you can't just take your 2is back and get your money back or return the car for another one without just cause, and your the issue with your headlight housing doesn't qualify as a "substantial quality defect". long story short, there's effectively a "no refund" policy. see here for a more detailed explanation:

^ that really doesn't have anything to do with luck. i mean, it's a warranty repair after all, as i've BEEN saying in my posts.

but if it makes you feel any "luckier" go out and buy yourself a lotto ticket. /OT
