Description of the problem	Since purchasing this vehicle (the day the car was delivered to me) both headlight enclosures contain visible signs of moisture that never goes away. Dealership promised to replace both headlight enclosures when i noticed this problem the day i took delivery of the vehicle. Dealership handed me a tsb that describes a similar condition with my car that disappears after 20 minutes of driving with the lights on. My problem never goes away after any amount of driving. Escalated to subaru of america. They refuse to address the problem stating "this is a normal condition" so, there has been no action taken to repair this problem to date by the dealership or the manufacturer.
