Default Moisture in side view

Good afternoon!!

how do you get moisture/ condensation, out from behind the driver side mirror glass? It seems to persist through summer even running the heated mirrors at the same time,

Never seen this. It would help if you gave some details about your vehicle. Sounds like you may have bad glass, though. I haven't shopped it in years, but the glass was separately replaceable from Ford.

It’s a 2012 F-150 Lariat with power fold, and heated mirrors.

I am new to this forum and getting used to how it works

Lariat probably has the most advanced and expensive glass. As I recall, the driver glass is over $200 by itself because of the heat and dimming functions. If you go to a Ford parts site and enter your VIN in their search, it should show what matches your vehicle.

Can you post a picture? i'm wondering if it's something behind the coating applied for dimming.
