My 12/2017 Model S has a dimming/browning highlight. Is this a common issue? My search didn't turn up much other than retrofit headlight sales. Would this be a warranty issue? I'm sitting at just under 49,000 miles.

Some folks, including myself, noticed in a dark garage that the eyebrow light has a slight amount of light emitting from it. In the other threads it was a guess that because the lights are not always shut off completely, they burn out much faster than normal.
The part close to the center was first to go out on both of my lights, then eventually the outage migrated to the rear of the light.I have a hunch LEDs are wired in parallel sets of series chains and are suffering from over-voltage, with the burn-out starting at the LEDs closest to the voltage source per series (end of the chain).
Would this be a warranty issue?
Both died within weeks of each other.
Now I need to get it XPELed again.
I’m surprised a search of this site didn’t find thousands of posts on this... I have had both headlights replaced in our 2018 S by our Ranger under warranty.My 12/2017 Model S has a dimming/browning highlight. Is this a common issue?
