Hi,
My Kuga is 14 months old and ive noticed all 4 sections of the rear light cluster have condensed up on the inside.
Would this be covered on the warranty?
Thanks.

I am in the same boat but mine is 19 months old.

Let me know how you get on as my dealer said that 'trim' was only covered for a year...

Not over bothered about it to be honest, but if I can get them changed then good as I plan to keep the car for a few years yet or until Kuga2 the revenge is launched...

Does anyone have a problem with condensation in the rear back lights?  If so, can you let me know if you were able to fix the problem.  It doesn't happen all the time, just now and then.  The Kuga is on a 59 plate.

Thanks
Melo

Hello all,
 
Kuga had its first service today, sump recall repair and clean for £163 at Bedford.
 
Whilst they were carrying out the service I asked them to inspect the condensation in the rear lights.
 
They have said its a warranty issue and have ordered some new lights, which will be installed next week.
 
A bit of a pain, but at least it's sorted! Confused
 
Thanks,
 
Chris

Hi Suv
 
Put "misting" or "condensation" into the search function on the site. There's a ton of stuff in there on different threads.

Its a warranty issue.

They will replace them.  I'm waiting for our lights to come in to stock for the repair
