headlight condensation
My son was washing his 2015 SL65........both headlight interiors immediately were covered with condensation. I assume the water intrusion is a long term problem. Anyone else have the same problem??

Thanks in advance

No problem here. Had my 2013 SL550 for 19 months. It would be covered under warranty I am sure.

No problem here too. I had it for 10 months. Go to the dealership and get it replaced under warranty. Nothing to worry about
