Exclamation Left headlight flickering :/

I have a 2010 GFM IS with HID's/AFS and just the other day I noticed that my Left HID light is flickering. My question is what could cause that "is it a bad ballast" and also does warranty cover it? If not how much does it usually cost to replace? Thank you everyone for your time

If it's under warranty the dealer will fix it unless u had installed HID kit yourself

Bulb might go bad, dealer should fix it under warranty

Bad bulb most likely. OEM ballests rarely go bad, they are usually super durable. Your car is a 2010 though so just take it back to the dealer and let them know its been flickering. Should be covered under your warranty so you won't get charged a dime. There's quite a few people on here that have got bulbs changed out under warranty so your car shouldn't be any different
