   2022 Genesis G70: Severe moisture inside of headlights causing DRL, blinkers, headlights, etc., to short out or completely stop working.

They gave me a quote of $6078.95 (labor not included)!! My vehicle has never been wrecked, and there is no front end damage whatsoever.

   Excessive condensation in the front headlight that constitutes a safety issue during night driving. Investigation into this needs conducted. I had the passenger side replaced under warranty but now I am outside warranty and the extended coverage excludes sealed headlight components. The dealership quoted $1600.00 to replace. Excessive for a safety item that should be recalled and manufacture should be forced to correct in a recall.
