Condensation in headlight

One of my headlights has quite a bit of condensation in it - its been like this for a while.
I'm guessing the seal must have gone, but the car is under 3 years old.
Is this likely to be covered under a Ford manufacturers warranty?

Do you drive around in the dark, on your parking/sidelights? the heat from the dipped beam should be enough to clear any condensation.

Hi, if the condensation is inside the headlight, then no that shouldnt be there, and yes, if I was you I'd get ford to fix it under warranty. Thats not something you expect out of a less than 3 year old car!Working to make our future as secure and comfortable as possible.0

Is it a Fiesta? It's a known Ford fault and there is a TSB (Technical Service Bulletin) for it. PM me if you need more details.0

A long time ago now, but I had condensation in the headlight of my Ka and they fixed it under warranty, no quibbles.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

It's a Ka actually, old shape.
Being serviced on the 1st so I will mention it. Hopefully they will replace it.
I already have a list of things for Ford to fix or look at, including a new heated windscreen due to a large block of failed elements, loud squeaking when both starting and stopping engine (belt issue?), a rattle when the engine is between 1400 and 1600rpm (heatshield, or maybe something more serious) and high pitch noise when reversing..... Ugh.0
