While driving at night, another driver let us know that our tail lights were not on even though the headlights were working. Also, the bright headlights are not working. Brake lights, emergency flashers, and turn signals are still working. When we have to drive at night until problem is fixed, we have to drive with flashers on. Checked all fuses and all are ok.

Rear tail lights constantly have moisture in them. They say this will evaporate when it warms up. Doesn't warm up in wisconsin during long winters - hello!.

I have a 2010 Subaru Forester and the rear tail lights fog up
constantly. I have only had the vehicle 3 weeks and less than one hundred miles. The vehicle has been back twice since I purchased it, only because of work otherwise it would have been back every day. On the last visit the service manager said there was a service bulletin issued on 12/17/2007 due to a design change the head lens and tail lens fog up and will not be covered under warranty ,and won't be fixed. The bulletin does not mention year 2010.
