Description of the problem	I have a 2005 audi a4 2. 0t quattro avant and a 2006 audi a4 2. 0t quattro sedan. On both cars, the xenon directional low beam headlamps shut off without any warning with message "right dipped headlight." lights come on again only after turning switch to off position, waiting ten seconds and turning them back on. Problem is intermittent but occurs every day. Audi dealers have replaced xenon bulbs, igniters and pigtail to lamps, advising that wires get very hot. Problem has not been fixed and constitutes great danger on dark roads. This has been recurrent on a regular basis for at least two years without a solution.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
