Default Another headlights pointing down issue

Okay so within the last couple months sometime my headlights started pointing down I didn't think too much of it it didn't bother me enough till recently. I try to just at myself and it did not go up or down any further. So I have the dealership look at today and they said it is because I have the wrong headlights on the car lines of 2010 and a half the 2012 headlights on it and the tech told me that the computer is reading the wrong headlight and it's got it stuck in some type of default mode does that make any sense to you guys and how can I fix this?

I believe, the adjuster fell off. It happened to my old headlight where I was trying to adjust my headlights upward. I adjusted it too high up and the lens just dropped down. Kind of like something unhooked. After that my headlight became non adjustable. Maybe the same happened to you? Ive never heard of computers reading wrong headlights as multiple people use 2012 headlights on 06+ models.
