Consumer Description
Severe constant moisture condensation build up inside rear light bar and rear side lights. The moisture is inside all clear plastic covers and some of the red inner plastic (which is underneath the clear plastic cover). It is available for inspection. This is causing a safety hazard due to reduced and dim light visibility. The constant moisture causes an increased risk of break lighting shortage, failure of lighting electrical system or the lights shutting off. With the reduced rear lighting visibility and risk possibility of rear lighting failure there is an increased risk of a crash. The dealer, I purchased the vehicle used from, tried taking it apart and drying the moisture but it came right back the next day. The vehicle has been seen at an auto garage. It is unkown if there has been warning lights or signals since I recently purchased it from the dealer who had it one month prior.
