Your headlight isn't fully sealed.
There should be no condensation in there whatsoever.
Put your foot down next time your at the dealer and demand a new headlight under warranty.
BTW....did you change your headlight bulbs? Some aftermarket bulbs do not seat properly.

take your car to a different dealer... there should be absolutely no moisture in there... if there's moisture in there and it condenses it my drip on the bulb and cause the bulb to bust... i have experience it made me angry when it rained hard... i always had to buy a bulb durring heavy rain storms with my old car... it should be sealed nice and tight. seriously take it to a different dealer.

It's one of the few options... you had to get the S&S package, then you could add side airbags.

its either the bulbs aren't seated or the light needs re-sealed.... i can take it apart and reseal it (clean out the inside of the lense and housing) if you want to send it to me if the dealer won't help ya.

j/k YEah man go to them and tell them that they better put blacked out headlights on, because there is no ralliart with chrome headlight housing unless someone swaped them.

Huh. Well, I guess they are slightly blacked out. They don't look as dark as ThyPunko's, but they're not as shiny as the ones on a coworker's rental ES.
The pics are kinda crap, because it's dark out, but you get the idea. I'll get a good front shot in daylight tomorrow.
Here's the RA:
