only had my under car leds for a month ,and now the driver side is blinking and fading on and off,i never went through a carwash but they seem to have moisture inside of the tubes. anybody else have problems with their led tubes?

i'm interested in under car leds...never had them. but is it common for all those light kits to seep moisture in? and or die out quickly?
