Default Headlight problem.

So when I put my cars headlights on auto only one DRL LED strip is on. But when I manually switch it to DRL or fully on they both are on. But only on auto one works. Car looks like it has a black eye as of a few days ago. How do I fix it?

Does it happen all the time? or just randomly?
Can you post a pic of the front of the vehicle when it happens?

Sounds like the LED is having a hard time dimming. Still under warranty?
