5 years can be the expected life of a battery. Is it the battery the cat left the factory with?

If the lights are only on when the engine is running, then that may well be a feature of the car - many new cars have Daytime Running Lights, and in many countries they are now compulsory.
The lights being on when the car is running won't make your battery go flat - however if they were on when the car is not running it would do.

You most likely have daytime running lights. Supposedly, the lights on during the day increase safety. It's not a problem at all. You won't run down your battery or anything. It could be the switch to set them off could be broken, or it could be you don't have them off, but in a sensor mode, and the sensor that detects whether they should be on is broken.

those light are driving lights, not the headlights ! on a lot of newer cars as soon as you start it the driving light comes on ! nothing to worry about, it,s just the way it was built !
