There is moisture in the head lamp housing. This moisture causes the inside to fog over reducing the amount of light. The lack of light makes it hard to see objects at night.

I have had 3 main problems transmission, headlight moisture and airbag light illumination my 99 venture has 79k miles on it and that transmission is shifting hard (dealer suggest a drain and flush) at 60k I had a valve in the transmission replaced for 800 dollars. I am afraid we will be replacing a transmission at 85000 miles. I can not believe it. The air bag light has been coming on since we bought the vehicle. We have had it in 7-9 times fixes ranged from clearing the code to tightening up a plug. The head light units have been taking on water and burning out lights for the last 20k miles. Sounds like a manufacturer defect. From what I have read on the internet a lot of people are having the same exact problems and I cannot believe gm would produce a vehicle like this and not stand buy there product.

Having to replace both taillight socket modules. The weather proof seal in the passenger side taillight was the start of the problem. Water leaked inside causing the socket to short. It melted on of the pins in the plug that attached to the module. This short has happened on both sides now and has started to affect other electrical systems, such as the anti-lock brake system, and the internal dash lights when the brake pedal is depressed. The signal lights do not work at night when the headlamps are on. I am presently searching for replacement parts to repair them.
