I had the same issue with my drivers side fog lamp and the dealer replaced it under warrenty. Swing by your dealer and they should do the same.

It's definately a warranty issue... Schwing by your stealership and let them have a go at it...

One important note, if you have upgraded your for light bulbs, be sure to check to make sure that the new (potentially higer wattage) bulbs have not melted your housings. If that's the case, expect your warranty work to be declined.

I noticed that my passenger side fog light had water in it too, with a lot of condensation. I have the Silverstar bulbs in the fogs and didn't want to blow them.

So I removed the fog light assembly, poured as much of the water out, then took a blower and blew warm air in it to evaporate the rest of the water.

I noticed on top there is a vent to allow air to flow with a fiber covering. I was thinking that water was dripping on this, allowing it to flow into the fog light.

I took some duct tape and made a tent like covering over the circular vent hole, which will prevent water from dripping directly on the vent, but allowing it to breathe.

So far, no more water or condensation in it.
