Honda Ridgeline headlight lens fogging causing dim light intensity on Honda Ridgeline

Problem overview

Some Honda Ridgeline owners report experiencing issues with dim headlight intensity due to fogging on the lens, which can significantly reduce light output and visibility while driving at night or in adverse weather conditions. This fogging may result from factors such as moisture buildup, aging of the lens material, or poor sealing of the headlight assembly. As a consequence, the scattered and diffused light can lead to reduced brightness and compromised visibility on the road. To remedy this issue, some owners find success using specialized lens cleaning products or kits to restore clarity to the lens surface. Additionally, to prevent future fogging, it is advised to ensure proper sealing of the headlight assembly, promptly address any moisture buildup, and consider applying a protective coating to the lens. If fogging persists or is severe, seeking a professional inspection of the headlight assembly is recommended to identify any underlying issues contributing to the problem.
