Low beam headlights flicker when vehicle is running and after a few minutes go out. This makes it very difficult to drive at night as the headlights will go completely out. Tested with vehicle stationary and in motion on a state maintained lettered roadway.
As I was driving all of a sudden the dashboard and headlights started flickering and the warning icons dinged on. This has continued to occur and the mechanic can not determine the cause of the problem.
Vehicles low beam headlights have gone out multiple times while driving. After replacing them multiple time they have now quit working completely. Previous model years have had the same issue and have had a recall. I think that this is a serious safety issue and should be addressed, regardless of age or mileage. This is obviously a manufacturing defect.
Sporadically the abs & brake warning lights come on the dashboard lights come on and the radio cuts out. The main issue is that when all of this happens the headlights also flicker and go out. When driving at night the headlights are very distracting to myself as well as other vehicles on the road. Once I was driving at night and my headlights completely went out for a few seconds. The dealer can¿t figure out what is causing the issue and there is no specific reason that causes it to happen.
The headlights (low beam only) just stopped working. No warning at all. Checked bulbs and they are fine. I am not getting power to the low beam lights. The high beams work fine along with the signals, horn, flashers, etc. . I know Chrysler has a recall on the 2005 models, and can't understand why the 2006 are not included!! it's the same problem.
Drivers side headlamp worked intermittantly and then lost power. There is no power leading to the low beam headlamp assy. 2005 models had a recall for this exact problem, but Chrysler tells me that my 2006 shows no recalls per my VIN. This is very dangerous that my headlights can fail while driving and cause a crash. Also replacing bulbs will not help this situation because the problem is in the integrated power module (fuse box). So you cannot even drive your car home if this problem happens to you on the road. Very dangerous and a horrible design by Chrysler.
