Stupid condensating tailight :(
Left was fixed under warranty but 3 years later it's starting to condensate again.
I fixed the right one with a silicon based gasket maker. 2 years later, no moisture in that one.
Take the light out.
Take it apart.
I used a shop vac on reverse to suck moisture out.
Then ran a bead of gasket maker around Mazda's shitty gasket that looked like it was made of paper- machete and reassembled. Fixed.

it took less time than waiting for the dealer to call back... as what "Kaiser bun" would do!
Mine used to come and go like the tropical season in Asia... Wet when it's raining (or washed) and dry once it's hot. LOL! Of course, the right one clears quicker than the left due to the location of the trunk key hole.
I drilled like 4 tiny holes on the bottom of each taillight. When it rains they still fill about 1/2 inch with water, then the water will drain within 30 minutes after the rain stops, then it takes about 6-12 hours before the rest of the fog/condensation goes away.
Yup, free way to fix it if you can live with water for half a day each time it rains.
