Default RE: tail light bolb

Calm down... More than likely, there is a bare wire and it is causing a short to ground.... It also could be that when you wash your bike, do you stick a hose up into the rear fender well? If so, there are 2 holes that the wiring goes into, that water, more than likely, is getting in and causing a short on the circuit board...

You don't have a piece of Junk.... Things like this happen, you just have to press the issue with your dealership that this is an ongoing problem, and you are tired of it... Find the gremlin, fix it, and all will be well in the world....
