If I start the car with the key fob the right headlight comes on as normal. If I start the car using the key in the ignition switch, the right headlight never comes on, acts as if it's burned out. I've asked the local dealer about this and am getting a runaround (not uncommon since I didn't buy it there). I figure it's a computer related problem but no idea how to 'fix' it. Any suggestions?

Check the lights using the switch on the steering column, you may have a burned out high beam filament on the right side.

When in the DRL mode, the high beam filaments are illuminated at 80% voltage, so you can still have a working low beam filament.

 

Just reiterating there is a difference between DRLs and headlights. Do your tail lights come on in one instance and not the other? DRL does NOT turn the tail lights on, headlights do.
