I’ve been dealing with the same issue for months. Got into a minor fender bender that led to the driver’s side headlight being replaced. The first had damage to the high beam, the second arrived with a scratch across the lens, number 3 filled with condensation that turned into huge water droplets within a day, and number 4 is doing the same. All OEM headlights directly through VW.

Having had GTIs with both halogens and LEDs and now the GLI, I find them very good.
That's interesting. I have a '21 S and I'm very satisfied with the headlights, they are not as quite as good as the Passat's but they are way better than my wife's Ford. Mine seem perfectly aimed, maybe yours are off a bit?
Ours are great, no complaints.
I will also say the headlights on the Arteon are primo. This past week I had to drive 100 miles each way out to one of our manufacturing facilities in a super rural area far from any highway where it was as dark as dark could be, no lights of any kind anywhere out there, and the headlights (both low and high beam) were fantastic
The overall performance of the Arteon's headlights are superior to probably most headlights on other cars. Even more so once you've coded it for the European dynamic lighting. Those are simply amazing.
In my experience, the headlights aren't bad but I liked the ones on my 2017 more. The 2020 has a brighter light, but it doesn't look like as much of the road in front of me is illuminated.
i constantly have other drivers flash me while i drive at night. i do believe these headlights produce a lot of glare.
i had the same error pop up recently, drivers side was burnt out and passenger side was close. replaced them with this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00U1OL44G/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01__o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 super easy fix and these lights match the color of the headlights.
SO so so much happier with these headlights after manually leveling them!
