Seems the supplier didnt put enough ventilation holes in the first batch,and i assume it depends where in the world you are to how it affected them
Condensation
I just noticed i have this problem too. Probably wait until car goes back for it's electronics upgrades in October, providing it doesn't get worse.Any one got problem with their Tail light after rain ? drive only once in rain and already got dense inside !

I have the same,about a third of the cover condensates,i did report this and was told its in ther parameters of usage due to differing amounts of moisture in the atmosphere(or something to that effect) And they would clear within a minute or two.Which they do!,so provided there are no lasting problems im ok with it!!
Still im sure they will report this to the suppliers if enough people have similar problems,as is usually the case in this industry

YOUR NOT HAVING A GOOD DAY!!! if thats the case then maybe the ventilation hole is blocked and they will fix it when take it in for an upgradewell mine one wouldn't get dry after 2 hours or so
I see this thread halted. Does this mean no-one else has problems with tail lights?
I got my original faulty tail light replaced a year ago and then after it came back from its second annual service (last week) it had two tail lamps broken in this same way, including the unit that had previously been cracked.
Moreover, I am being told there are none in stock and no date for when there will be stock! I can only
conclude that 12C production has been halted as clearly this piece of plastic is impossible to fix........

Same here Syd,i have one on back order from fogging,what is a worry is I did get one that failed completely which renders the car un-drivable,so waiting with baited breath .........
Although I think they are out of stock because they have changed suppier to try to solve the problem as it must be a small fortune bring back cars to the dealership several times to fix a faulty light
Unless they are changing the rear lights too, it's probably a bigger issue. If they are still fogging up, it's either a design issue or a manufacturing issue.
Mine had condensation it them a while ago. They didn't fail and I haven't had a chance to take it in yet. Plan to this spring. Hopefully they'll have them in stock.
