Default V90CC - possible water leak

We have a late 2017 V90CC which seems to regularly mist up after sitting out in rain, the car does have the panoramic roof. Anyone else have this problem?

Also the headlights seem to have condensation in them, is this normal?

Is it misting inside before you get in, or misting up while you drive, if its misting up while you are driving are you using eco mode, eco mode turns the climate control to a reduced level for economy which results in misting, especially during wet conditions.

It's misting up when parked after its rained not when it's being driven

I recall having my car recalled to fix a climate system pipe fastening or something like that over a year ago, I had not had any problems with mine but I think several cars in the USA had suffered misting up due to this problem so as a precaution all were called in to get it checked, it might be worth asking your dealer if there is a possible leak from your system.

No accident damage or replacement screen....think its time for a visit to the dealer
