Default Xenon Headlight Warning after Headlight Replacement

I just had a headlight replaced by the body shop after a fender bender and there is a "dynamic headlight control warning" on the dash now. Does this need to be reset by the dealer or will it just go away on its own?

You can reset the light by pulling the headlight fuse. It will disable the auto leveling function but, if your headlights are already aligned it shouldn't matter.

The leveling sensors are in the front left (driver) and rear right suspensions. So, probably the front was not installed correctly. Have the body shop fix it. OR, if the headlight is correctly aimed, pulling fuse 10 will eliminate the icon as well as the ability of the headlights to auto-level. I had to do that with mine - once the fuse it out they do not change position.
