Tail Light

My driver side tail light is out , well the inner bulb. Is this under warranty?

Or do I have to do it myself

Probably. But at $3.50 a gal for gas (and who knows how much after Gustav?) it was cheaper for me to change it myself rather than drive 40 miles to the dealer. Easy to change. Two screws.

Call the dealer, I kind of doubt that it will be covered... unless you bought the car in the last 3 months or so.

I remember a thread on here in the past about a similar situation where someone's headlight bulb went out twice within the first few months and it wasn't covered by the warranty.

But you never know, maybe they would replace it just because it was new, just depends on the dealer. It wouldn't hurt to give them a call.

I have the same issue with my driver side tail light, what was the fix? Ended up taking out the bezel and chipping off a corner part of it which got me pretty heated. All bulbs on the car seem to be functioning however my left side directionals are fast.

If you have "fast" blinkers, there is a bulb out in that circuit. I found out, the hard way, that a visual inspection is not trustworthy on these newer style bulbs. And assuming that a new one is good can lead to MORE assumptions as well. If ALL blinker bulbs are actually blinking it may be time to replace them ALL, and it that doesn't get it then it is warranty time.
