Hello,
I'm a new member. I bought my used 2020 CX-5 GS about three weeks ago. I'm in Montreal, Canada.
Yesterday I noticed that the daytime running lamps weren't on (in Canada, these are a legal requirement). They were not illuminated for any of the headlight settings (off, auto, parking, on), regardless of whether the car was in drive, park or neutral; whether the emergency/parking brake was engaged; ignition on, engine on.
So I assume something has failed. The DRL relay is present, but I haven't tested it yet.
If the problem is with the DRLs themselves, I'd sure love to avoid paying thousands to have them replaced. Thankfully, the car is under the original comprehensive warranty until August 2023 (not that I'm eager to argue with the dealership about warranty work)
My question to the forum: I read about a DRL issue/recall on the 2016 model, but is this something that later years suffer from, too?
Thanks,
Sylvan
