Head light issue

So I have Led headlights had them for about 4yrs now and they have began to flicker now the passanger side light will sometimes go out or will dim alot the driver side has flickered once. When the passanger side one goes dim or out the highbeam light on the dash lights up real dim and stays on if i try to put the brights on when this happens the light fully lights up but the brights dont come on. When both headlights are working the brights work just fine. So question is does this sound like an LED issue or do i have something else going on.

Check your locking tabs on your light bulbs. Secured not broken or loose.
