Should be covered under warranty no?

Probably, just didn’t know if it was worth a peek in Forscan or something else…

I tried a battery reset, no dice.

The reason I asked is because there are a lot of LED's making up that light bar. If all are out, that is either a bad wire, connector or LED driver that powers the whole light.

Copy that.

I’ll do a double check tomorrow before making an appt. With the dealer I suppose

If you just bought it brand new, it should be under warranty to have it fixed or replaced.

A few people have reported that changing the ballast fixed their DRL issue. They had a software issue on some last year if I remember correctly.

customer shouldn’t be having to pay out of pocket for this bull crap though lol.
You don’t pay out of pocket unless it’s out of warranty. The ballast is $50 new on eBay.
