Trailhunter OEM Rigid Fog Lights Delamination

[Adam Henry]

Hello, I wanted to check in regarding an issue I found with the OEM Rigid fog lights on my 2025 Trailhunter.
As I was washing my truck, after an offroad trip to Arizona ( Kofa, lots of fun), I noticed the coating on the Rigid fog lights, both right and left, appeared to be peeling. Upon closer inspection it appeared that the protective film on the lenses was delaminating and flaking off.
I took my truck to get serviced at my local dealership and mentioned the issue. The tech inspected the lights during the service and concluded that it was a warranty issue and ordered a new set.
I’m posting this as a heads up in case you own a 24-26 Trailhunter or TRD Pro, as they come equipped with the Rigid lights. I would take a look at them to see if the coating is also peeling. I am sure that, much like the Gen 3 headlights fogging, once the truck reaches the three year mark it would no longer be covered.

I have that problem too. Initially thought my ceramic coat (that I applied) was peeling. I guess this is either a film never removed from the factory or a legit delam issue. I though the lens was glass..?

My daughter’s trailhunter has this too. I’m not sure it’s a problem.

I had my passenger side light replaced, the dealer warrantied it. Humor: when they ordered the replacement in December Rigid charged them $600 for the one light. Rigid was having a warehouse sale and I could have bought both lights for $300. They said don't worry about the savings.

It seems to be a protective coating applied, maybe for UV protection and/or rock chips? The lenses are definitely plastic though. I don’t think you’d want anything glass on the front of the truck.

I will have to take a look at mine. Thanks for the heads up

Mine were replaced under warranty.
