I have the same problem and it got worse when they repainted my car. The only way to fix it is to dry it out (let it sit or use a hair dryer) and than reseal them with silicon

I just looked at my driver side and the little plastic cap that cover up that level looking thing was broken. Would that cause this?

I doubt it cause it shouldnt have anything to do with the seal around your headlights. Mine is fine and the lights fog all the time.

there is a small tube on the bottom of the light fixtures that lets air out. make sure that isnt blocked or tampered with.

I had the same problem with the tailight on my probe. I let it dry out, then sealed it again, problem solved.
