Does any one else have condensation on the inside of the lens when they wash the car? Its only on one of mine? Should I go get it replaced? Or is it ok?

It sounds like the silicone seal is leaking. You can either take it off and inspect it for the opening and add some silicone or just take it back.

Big Time

Have an appointment in the moring with the dealer to install my missing shuttle tile above the turbo and one item I want addressed is the fog in the fog lites

With the rain here in tampa, my left EYE is shut dead by moisture! ( FOG EYE)

and yeas...my heat shield is also not stuck on too strong.

I wouldn't even mess with it myself - that's what the warranty is for. I had that very same fogging effect in a headlight on my '01 Neon. Turned out to be a bad seal and the dealer replaced the entire headlight. (Yea warranty...)

Shuttle tile? What does it look like? Don't remember seeing anything like that on mine. And now it's too late to see

Yea, my driver's side foglight is fogging up as well.

Time to make a trip to the dealer.

Foggy Fogs and Shuttle Tiles

I am blind in the right eye now and half blind in the left. The dealer has ordered a new pair of fogs for me --I hope they do not develop the same problem.

The "Shuttle tile" is the reflective insulating pad that is supposed to be mounted to the firewall above the turbo. Without it - the collector box for the incoming air to HVAC becomes super heated rendering the A/C less effective.

Mine had no screws securing it to the firewall like several others I have seen. The adhesive that is on the backside of the pad fails when the turbo heats it up. roll

This is a typical eBay Euro problem. Though, under the warranty this is usually covered and thus reported back to the QC folks at DC.

Fog lights

My dealer is trying to tell me that is normal--there is a weep hole in the bottom of the light that lets moisture in/out. he says they will dry out on their own
I say BullS**T

Take it to another five star dealership and see what happens.

 

[TTigger]

Wellll--They replaced the passenger side fog light but I guess they didin't feel the drivers side was bad enough yet or else they only had one unit in stock. Will get that one next trip in. Unfortunately I am getting this feeling that I will know everyone and their families on a first name basis before I purchase my next new vehicle. roll

Head lamps and fogs are being replaced.
