    What bulb are you using.A Sylvania Long Life bulb should last. Possibly a slight resistance between the socket connecter and the bulb causing it to heat up. Every other GM SUV and pickup around here has one side out. They had a problem with the sockets burning up. I haven't heard of Toyotas doing this though.

    Had that happen on my 08 passenger side, found that the socket where the bulb plugs into was a little burnt, I just replaced the socket and no more burnt out bulbs.

    #10 in the diagram is the replaceable bulb socket if you need the part number. They have been known to get corrosion and rusty contacts in them.
