Noticed today that I have fog on the interior of the headlight lens. Is there a quick fix for this issue? I'm guessing it is a seal that will have to be replaced by the dealer and run about $500...

-Thanks

Welcome to NICOclub, glad to have you here in the Armada/QX56 Forum! Chances are it is a bad seal, sure it isn't under warranty yet?

Thanks for having me and the response. I didn't think this would be a warranteed part. I will call the service center and see what they say.

IF YOUR HEADLIGHT ASSY HAS WATER INSIDE AND NO SIGN OF IMPACT/DAMAGE JUST BRING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ITS WARRANTY.

Same problem with my 06 QX. It was covered under warranty. Drivers side was fogged. They replaced it but there was a distinct difference between the brand new assembly and the passenger side original and i made them replace the passenger side as well to keep a uniform look.

I agree with just bringing the car to get it warrantied, if it is still under one.
