you are probablly experiencing a problem with the ballast or igniter. I have no idea what you should do, but going to the dealer would not be a bad idea.

to clear things up, HID stands for high intensity discharge, and Xenon is the gas that fills the bulbs.

Do not pass Go, Do not collect $200

Those lights are $1200 each. You should be at the dealer like yesterday before they find some reason to not want to fix it under warranty.

"You drove the car over 100 mph and the excess wind means you broke it". Watch them try that crap .
