Head/City light
My drivers side Head and City lights both have a huge amount of condensation in them, i am going NUTS! Im just debating the issue if it maybe is because of my HID kit that i have installed in there? i also have LED city lights! Warranty

Shouldn't be happening at all. It'll start making the headlights look fogged and old in no time to boot.
It'll be fixable via Warranty. Had that problem on my old Chevy Malibu and they replaced both headlights.

my question is, i have an Unlimited Carwash account .. i literally was my car 6x a week and wax once a month. Could this be a result from the pressure washer that they use? I dont believe my HID has done this also...more because there is an LED bulb in the City light. Should i take the kit out before i bring it in to the dealer?

You probably did not get the units sealed correctly. As you have done a modification to the factory unit, I doubt this will be covered by warranty. While third party modifications generally do not impact warranty coverage, if the dealer can reasonably point to a modification as the cause of a problem, they are under no obligation to perform warranty repairs to resolve such issues. The burden of proof is on the dealer, however, in your case, you made modifications to the headlight assembly and now you are experiencing problems with the headlight assembly. Hopefully you have a forgiving service department.
