I live in Las Vegas and 2 evenings ago I went to pick up food, less than miles away from my home, it happened to be raining lightly,not a hard downpour or anything. I returned home and parked in the garage like I always do, and the next day I notice my right passenger side light seems to have condensation and possibly some water in the inside of the light. As you can hopefully see from my pics, the left taillight is fine.

I appreciate the input. Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions.

If there was moisture within the light cluster or headlamp unit the heat from the bulb would generally evaporate it and keep the light clear.

Just wondering if anyone else is having this issue with their Model 3 and if you've also been fobbed off by Tesla. Top Contributors this Month View All. If you change to a different setting, the lights will always revert to Auto on your next drive. If so, how was it taken care of?
