Description of the problem	My audi a4 constantly will get a dipped headlight, meaning that the hid lights will dip and fail to stay on. It happens on both sides and will happen at night. I have driven in complete darkness and had both lights fail, if i turn the lights off for a few seconds and back on they will reset but it does not take long before they do it again and it is something that concerns me anytime i drive during dark times. I live in a area with snow and ice in the winter and also have to deal with deer and pedestrians during the summer. My lights going out all of a sudden for no reason has me questioning the safety my car provides. I am concerned that i may have my lights go out and wreck, or potentially hit a animal or person.
