Condensation--->Warranty on GM tail lights??

I'm getting a build up of condensation in one of my tail lights, my new one that was replaced last summer when the car was painted. It's not even a year old and I know it was ordered from GM. Does anyone know if there would be a warranty on it?

If not I guess I have to take it apart and try to fix it.

Usually it's 12 months/12,000 miles on parts and service from the dealer, so I'd go back and see what they say. As for fixing it yourself, I had the dealer fix the moisture problem on both my headlights and taillights on my Blazer that was out of warranty. What did they do? They drilled some small holes in the bottom of the housing on the back of the light to allow air to get in there. no problems since.

Thanks for the info, I'm gonna take it back to the body shop and see what they say. I'd really rather not make a vent hole, I'd like them to be sealed properly like they're suppose to be. My passenger side tail light has been perfect since I bought the car but I've always had water problems with the driver side.
