Uh... not normal! I have a set of 2013 headlights on my truck and I don't have an issue with condensation! I would be checking the electrical connector..that is the only place that moisture seems like it could get in. That or the four bolts that make the seal on the back are not tight enough.
Does not matter. Brand new truck with brand new headlights.
No headlight should leak much less a brand new one. Unacceptable.
I would get a new set and the argument for that would be you now have had water on the LED's and electrical connections. That means the life of the LED might have possibly been shortened.
This is what I would do if I just spend some big money on a brand new truck.
I am sure that the engineers spent thousands of dollars & just said screw it, so what if the lights are not sealed properly, lets just let the lights gather moisture, none of the other owners will notice, other people won't rush to buy a vehicle like a Ford or Chevy, because we didn't get it right.
What they told you is total BS, raise hell, call Ram too
The first day I got my 2012 I noticed condensation in one of my headlights, it was that night. It went away and hasn't done it since (6 months). I think the proper test the dealers do ( I read on here) is to leave lights on for 15 min and if condensation still persists warranty will cover it.
well I took a drive to the dealership today and noticed about a 1/4 of the trucks have the same condensation.... Mine does come and go, its not their now, but when it gets below -5 it will appear again. warrenty is good for long time yet i will wait till 20000k then get new headlights
We may not have winters like our northern friends but I have yet to see a brand new truck that has condensation build up on the inside of the headlights regardless of how cold it gets. I doubt the quad headlights have had this issue so why should the new projector style?
Seats more comfortable, steering and handling better, stereo better, electronics better, power delivery is nicer, doesn't wine ... its worth the upgrade. Just don't like the headlights so far :smiledown: dang condensation. but i am sure it will get fixed one day
my Ram is a 2009
until my vacation in July & August of 2012, i never had any issue with my lights
now my drivers side headlight has condensation in it, it is dimmer due to the condensation, therefore a possible safety issue
I don't know if something like a rock hit it, breaking the seal or cracking it
My headlights are always on while driving & the moisture is always there, by the way, i live in San Diego & the hot summer heat didn't evaporate the moisture.
I am glad that i have the MAXIMUM CARE LIFETIME WARRANTY, the most i will have to pay is $100 deductible, so i will wait until i need at least one more thing to goes bad, it will still be $100 per visit
I have the Quad lights on mine and I did notice some condensation the other day but not now will keep an eye on it. Millage is my only issue I mostly tow and so far only around 11mpg. I can live with that, hopefully it will get better when it gets broke in. I only have 1300 miles on it.
My 13 sport had condensation in the headlights for maybe the first two weeks ive had it but hasn't happened since! I personally hate the projectors, I wish they had of come with hid, and i think the kind of look like they came from ebay! I'd like to swap them with some quad's but not sure how involved this will be! I'm pretty sure the plug is different!
In my '12 the condensation has appeared maybe 4 or 5 times that I have noticed, always when the thermometer dips down low. The other 99% of the year it doesnt happen.
