Headlights are vented for heat reasons, and there are light assemblies that have breathers on them, but the condensation is not normal. Condensation will cause corrosion of any contacts in the light assembly, and it makes the interior of the light (which you can never clean) start to look tacky. I say fight this one, and receive a new light assembly. I had an issue like this on another vehicle we owned, and it resulted in complete light failure; taillights are required by the DOT, and a mandated safety feature.

I think we might have an issue with our passenger's side taillight as the entire assembly squeaks against the other body parts, and it also appears that the housing pieces of the taillight are not staying together.
