I had the headlight recall performed on my 2022 f150 today at Groove Ford. It seems the did an FDRS (?) twice on the BCM and sent it to me. It seems like the flickering is a little inconsistent, which is why it might've been missed. I noticed it with the truck turned off while the lights were on the timer after having had the door open.

Thoughts? They want to take the truck back for a few days. I'm a little concerned not because I need the truck right now, but we've had insane weather. I'm concerned about something happening to it while its just sitting idle doing nothing for a week. It would be one think if they actually took a look at the problem when I drop it off, but we all know it's just going to sit out of my care until they can get to it. Really can't do the damn 2000$ deductible again. Would the dealership be on the hook for hail damages? I wouldn't think so, but it's in their care.

Update,
I tried to recreate it like 20 times both with the truck on and off and couldn't. Not sure what the deal is here. I think I might call off the dealer appt. It DEFINITELY was flickering bad that one time after the recall was done.
