I think this has been discussed many times before. But I think I was still a bit confused... is this a true recognized problem on the TSX? I think there was a recall about this, but my understanding was that it only applied to [euro-]accords. And yet I remember seeing many posts about it on this board.

Some members have experienced this, but it does not seem to be a widespread problem. If you bring it in, the dealer will replace your headlight without any hassle. Do a search under "condensation" and you should find some references to that issue.

I noticed this problem about a month and a half ago in my driver's side headlight. I called the dealer last thursday to schedule an appointment for an oil change and mentioned this problem. He said he'd order a new headlight and change it when I brought it in, all without seeing it which was nice. Just got a call at work this morning saying that the headlight was in so I'm a happy camper.

They have numerous amount of threads regarding this thread.

The defect will be replaced under warranty, so don't worry about it.
