Car Forum / Dodge / Dodge Cars / January 2006Condensation in Charger headlight
06 Charger RT. Recently noticed some dimming of one headlight and I see considerable condensation built up inside the lens. I don't see any vents that might have gotten plugged up. I also see via web searches that this seems to be a common problem in Chrysler products. Anybody esle having this issue and how are you resolving it? Thanks in advance. its a common problem in ALL brands of cars these days. > 06 Charger RT.

Isn't that caused by a bad seal on the headlight fixture? > its a common problem in ALL brands of cars these days. > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] >> issue and how are you resolving it? >> Thanks in advance. > 06 Charger RT.

Could be bad seal on headlight lens/shell seam, or bad seal (o-ring) on bulb. I have one side on a car that does that maybe once a year; I just loosen a bulb on that side and park facing south on a sunny day, and then re-seat the bulb after a few hours. Dealer has ordered a new assembly, for lack of a better term. It does seem to be a problem with the Charger. One pic on the web has the new Charger being shown on a pedestal at a car show...with condensation in one headlight. Bring back the sealed beam lamps they never had that problem.

I have had this problem on two of my Rams now, and after losing several bulbs to water, solved it by simply drilling a small hole in the bottom of the headlight lens to allow the water to escape.
