Moisture in Reverse light Lens

Has anyone experienced moisture in your reverse light lens? I have it in both lenses and it does not go away.

This was spotted in some pre-pro cars and severl production cars. A problem they never really addressed :( A small problem, yea, but still a problem.

This might explain why I still don't have my car. At this rate I might get it in 2010. VIN 847

Move to Arizona. Problem solved. Except not today. It's raining right now. Also, never wash the car. Or goop silicone sealer all around the lens.

Kidding.

My wife saw moisture in the backup lights on a 1LT at Portsmouth Chevy in NH. She said some mechanics were looking a the car and said something about a moisture issue but she didn't catch all they said about it. She says they were saying something about because it was an independent rear suspension there would be moisture issues like another car had in the past. I was not there. I have no idea what that has to do with it.

Take it for what its worth. Its hearsay...

Wow...There's some brilliant engineering. Please don't tell me I'll have to lift the engine to change the spark plugs.

Check seal on the lamps. Might want to apply some silicon lube to gasket.

Make sure it's low humidity when you clean out and reseal it.
