Condensation in Tail light?

Just picked up my BRZ today, love the car so far! I noticed that there was a good amount of condensation in the tail light this morning and it's slowly going away, but I was just curious if anyone else had this happen to their car? It was my passenger side tail light. The dealer said it should "work it's way out", but I'm worried that it might be a bad seal or that the condensation will be recurring. Any thoughts?
And, a pic of the beauty!

Nice BRZ!

Now, use the search button, it is your friend. This is a known issue, take it in and get it fixed under warranty. A technical bulletin should have been issued already.

Ah crap sorry, I never go over to the FR-S side, didn't see any threads on the BRZ side. Dealer didn't seem too concerned about it, guess I need to go back and press the issue. Mods, feel free to delete.
