Moisture in head lamps/ fog lamps!

2004 Impala LS

I have some considerable moisture build up in one of my fog lamps. Also at times I have seen a light mist of moisture in headlights.
I am sure this is not uncommon. Will the dealer do anything for me? (still under warranty) Or are there any DIY fixes for this issue?

Thanks in advance for the replies!

Fog lamps look like a pain to get too... although the lamps on the '03 of mine have been broke for quite some time... (i'm not the everyday driver for that car) Too lazy to do much with that car at the moment. I don't even have pictures of it =D

Re: Moisture in head lamps/ fog lamps!

gm will do nothing for u if its just " moisture". you have to fight tooth and nail to get this. tell them it was full of water the other day. take the light assembly out and put water in it. whateveryou have to do. gm has big problems with headlight assemblies and tailight assemblies getting moisture in them. they don't want to pay to fix all of them. so u have to complain big time and say that there was actually water in the lense.
