Adaptive Headlight Malfunction :(

I had this pop up this morning on the way to work. It went away after I restarted the car. I then drove around with the lights on to see if I could duplicate it again. Has anyone run into this?

I've gotten it a few times very briefly but it always goes away. I've told the advisor but he doesn't know either and can't reproduce.

it happened while I was driving. I entered a section of road that's shaded by trees which makes my headlights turn on.

Possible that some debris kicked up and made contact with the potentiometer attached to the front LCA? It's possible as it sits fairly low to the ground. Aside from that, I do know that the "auto-levelling" feature will not function while driving, for obvious reasons, there's a chance it's a glitch in the module/software for the chassis? Just throwing out some ideas.

Hope it's something small, and dealt with while under warranty.. These little bugs can run the life of the car, if they never replicate themselves during a diagnostic. I've had my nav screen go black "no signal" a couple of times (literally twice) in the last 1.5 years. Each time I've noted it but they cant replicate it, so they feel it's fine..
