Default 2017 Malibu lt, passenger drl out.

My drl is out but only the passenger side. I really don't want to have to spend over $100 to get it fixed and I was told lights aren't covered by the warranty. However this is the second light to go out on the passenger side. My rear blinker went out about a year ago. So my questions are..... Could there be a wiring issue since 2 different lights on the passenger side have failed in a less then 2 year old car. And/or is there something else I should be looking at like a fuse that may be out? Driver's side working fine.

To me, it a bit early to warrant an investigation for it being anything more than a bad bulb. dtrl..are on a lot. the rear signal and dtrl wiring are not on the same circuit. There may be a drtl fuse....check it for power before testing for power at the bulb.

Its my understanding all bulbs are covered if your under 3 years 36000 miles.
