If the rear tail light housing of a car is damaged, it generally only affects the appearance. Minor exposure to rain usually won't cause issues, but prolonged exposure may lead to damage to the tail light bulb or socket, rendering the light inoperative and affecting the vehicle's annual inspection. The following are the methods to deal with water ingress in car tail lights: 1. Minor water ingress: After turning on the lights for a while, the moisture will evaporate with the heat through the vent tube, without damaging the tail light or electrical circuits. 2. Severe water ingress: If discovered, it's advisable to visit a 4S shop for disassembly and repair as soon as possible; alternatively, you can remove it yourself, let it dry, and then check the tail light surface for any cracks or potential water leakage points.
