What happens if the ballast fails?

A defective ballast will cause the headlamp to fail completely. Replacing the ballast should restore the headlight function, assuming the bulb itself is still good.

Are there any safety precautions I should take when installing this ballast?

Xenon headlights involve high voltage. Refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for proper installation and any specific safety precautions. If you're not comfortable working with electrical components, it's best to have a professional install the ballast.
