Why wouldnt they cover your tails? One is not related to the other.
Did you modify them?

Honestly, it's not like Subaru/Toyota have figured out the fix for them yet. They will just replace it and then you'll probably get condensation again in a few months. Your best bet is to just make some thicker gaskets yourself and call it done.

Dealer won't say anything , if your power train had failed then maybe they would blame the turbo .. But lights?
What are they gonna say the boost caused the condensation? P.s: you went FI knowing your warranty may be voided , it may be voided with this or next time you go .. Who knows |

There is no such thing as voiding the whole warranty. They have to cover your tailights even if you had a different engine in the car...

![]() If some dealers wont do it, I'm sure another will. I also remember reading a thread where a dealer let the guy do the taillights himself because he told them how there is a specific way to install and what not so they were able to send him the tails to do himself. |
