2021 Toyota Fortuner: Ant infestation in the tail lamp assembly

I thought it is a sealed unit and will be resistant to such attacks.

BHPian gadhadar recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Was surprised to find an ant colony inside the taillamp of my 10 months old Fortuner. I thought it is a sealed unit and will be resistant to such attacks. I am yet to go the service center, it seems they are black ants and supposedly harmless.

Here's what BHPian getsurya had to say on the matter:

It is a sealed unit, please raise a warranty claim as water or dust also will seep in!

Here's what BHPian cool_dube had to say on the matter:

Not expected of a Toyota! As getsurya suggested, please get it replaced under warranty. Is this an indicator to deteriorating QC levels at TKM?
