Same problem on 2014 Kluger (aka Highlander but in Australia) - has condensation and moisture build up. Any idea or link to video/instructions on how to get the assembly off in order to get the water out, then maybe try a heat gun then silicon seal it up? Found 2x nuts to un-do on the outside but it seems to be fixed on the inside so I didn't force it...

I have a 2005 highlander and noticed water droplets in the rear taillight housing but not in the taillight itself. Any ideas?

I have a 2014 Highlander with exactly the same issue...Toyota should refund our costs on this, as it is clearly a design issue.

I have an older highlander, and my issue is that the rear light assembly is really dirty around the edges, on the underside (mold, I think). Re:your video, I assume the dealer pressure washed the tail lights to clean them and broke the seal. I'm looking for a video that shows me how to clean this assembly (remove /replace).

How about letting us know the Toyota dealership. That’s 21,000 subscribers that won’t buy from them. I bet your friends get the tail lights replaced fast and probably for free.

Have the same issue with my 2016 Highlander. One got water in it wile under warranty, so they fixed it at not cost to me. Now it’s 2021, and both rear taillights have the same issue. I need to contact the dealership and see what is being done about this

I also have a 15 highlander xle. Haven’t had an issue and no recall. I had the same thing happened on my front side lights on my 2000 tundra. I waited till it dried and then put a small bead of silicone where it attaches it it seems like it helps.

2015 Highlander here. So far no moisture in the lights, but water pump went out at 54000 miles. Was under warranty fortunately!

Ben G - what symptoms did you have for the pump? Drips on the driveway and loss of coolant? TM - don't have this problem on my 16HL (37K) but did on older Suburban. Had to remove light assemblies and silicone around entire perimeter. Thanks TM. Look forward to your solution

@@condor5635 literally one day to the next heard a noise from the engine compartment. Looked around and saw the water pump pulley wobbling and making noise. No prior symptoms. I'm in tune to our cars and do alot of their maintenance with this channels help. Was going to do it myself but dealer said it's under warranty until 60k. Definitely take a look at it before the warranty is up! Here is the short video I took. kzitem.info/news/bejne/laNvtomiiGJoppw

All Highlanders from 2nd & 3rd gen have these issues with headlights fog & tail lights going out frequently. Taillights always have water moisture condensation issue due to poor quality seals and eventually short out the bulbs. The water pump is also another weakness in these generations and their symptoms due to poor quality bearings. Even in the hybrids which are better built. You'll start hearing a noise when the engine is running as if it was a serpentine pully/ belt noise. Cheap part and labour if u go to a mechanic with small hands.

I need help with 2008 Toyota Highlander. I'm having a problem with the windshield wiper sprayer. Could you please make a video on the whole spraying system? I already checked the sprayer nozzles on the end of the tubing. How do I unclog the tubing?

keli Surfs if your are getting spray on one side but not the other. There is a hose splitter located on the hood that goes out often on Toyota’s. Follow the washer hose up the hood and under the hood heat pad and you will find the splitter on the hood. Take note of where the hoses are on the splitter then remove and replace.
