Default 2021 IS headlight question

Hello, new here, does anyone see this with their headlights, particularly the left one where a dark spot is out at the end of the light. I've read this is for oncoming traffic. True or is my light messed up? Thank you

I'm seeing the same thing. Not sure how it's supposed to help oncoming traffic though.

I just got mine last week. I think is just how the beam is formed from the headlight unit... Do you have the triple beam lights or base??
