One time I hit the dash and everything came back on another time just to see I opened my driver door and everything came back on when I closed the door back everything went back off. It started as random but is now more and more often. It happens alway when I am driving.

Halo lights in 2015 Jeep cherokee went out. This is not a light bulb replacement. You have to replace the entire headlight assembly when this happens and it is $1600 for just the part. This is not covered under my warranty so when I called Jeep to complain the person I spoke with advised me that she gets this complaint frequently. Lighting on the outside of your vehicle is important. Why would Jeep put a part on a car that you cannot replace or change a bulb and if it happens frequently it seems to me that this is a defect of some sort.

The headlights flicker for a quarter second, and then work fine for a few minutes during night driving. This occurs on average of about once every 4 minutes of driving with the headlights on. According to Jeep forums online, this has been a known safety issue in Grand Cherokees. During night trips in rural areas, I am concerned that this issue could become more detrimental. There are no streetlights, and many whitetail deer and other hazards are made unavoidable without headlights, or with distraction caused by this flickering. This happens regardless of speed, turning, or electronics turned on. It is even more frustrating that replicating this issue is almost impossible during the daytime (when mechanics are working).

Memory seats no longer work, therefore causing my seat to be out of whack and I can not sit right. My engine began to make a ticking noise out of nowhere, meaning something is wrong.

At random times while driving, while in park, and just after startup, all dashboard gauges, lights, and power goes out, headlights turn off, but the engine still runs. I cannot see what is in front of me at night, I cannot tell my speed, I cannot see my fuel level, etc. The outage lasts from 2-30 seconds before every single warning light will illuminate for a few seconds, or flicker on and off, and then return to normal. I replaced the ignition 2 years ago from a previous recall notice. This is extremely dangerous because I never know when it will happen, it could happen at night on a heavily trafficked street and I lose all power and lights!.

While driving my 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee one morning while it was still dark I noticed that the drivers side head light went out and came back on intermittently. The next morning I tried again and all the lights went in and out completely. Providing a very dangerous satiation not only to me but other driver's. I made an appointment with the dealer (had to wait one week to get it in to service). They checked it out and said they needed to order a part and gave the Jeep back and would call when they had the part. When we took it back for the repairs they kept the Jeep for three weeks trying to fix the problem. Saying they could not figure out the fix after Chrysler told them to change a part in the computer system. When that did not work they contacted Chrysler and got a technician who advise that the headlights were the problem. The dealer change out the headlights and charged us $917. 88 for the repairs saying it was not covered by my extended warranty. I truly believe this is a Chrysler problem with electrical issues, wiring or computers and should be covered by Chrysler not by individual owners. This is substantiated by all the complaints for the same type of problem.

Bi xenon hid headlamps Jeep Grand Cherokee passenger side headlight issues with design and expensive repair after 6 years as owner of this type of truck. Something as such an cars/trucks, bulbs or headlamp housing design shouldn't be such a issues on only 6 year old vehicle. Blub which cost over $99. 99oem and $300 at the dealership just for blub part plus labor. It's such a safely issues reading many message boards on other owners having concerns driving at night with one headlight being out until the repair is made or issues are fixed with this problem. Which I feel it is a problem with the design cause of all I have read about. Online. I would like to bring this matter to attention for the many disappointed consumers dealing with such issues that is related to the safety of traveling during the evening hours. Chrysler should beware of this issues in their trucks and offer recalls if known problems with the design or wiring. Just doesn't make sense a newer type of truck only 6 year old having such a type of issues in dealing with replacement of headlamp bulb which when new doesn't work. New york n. Y.

When driving at night the headlights do not shine down the road far enough to see at a safe distance and using the bright lights is not always practical. This is a safety issue. I have spoken with other Jeep owners who experienced the same issue.

My headlights are not working. Also the electronic board for my radio, climate control, etc. Goes on and off. After some research I found hat he nonfunctional headlights are a recurring problem for many owners of 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokees.

Don't drive a lot at night, but when I do the headlights to not illuminate well. They do not light the road more than maybe 30'. This is a serious safety issue, especially living in rural mountain area. Another person drove the vehicle at night and asked if the headlights were even on as they don't illuminate well, even worse in rain. Very disappointing that a basic component of vehicle doesn't function properly or safely.

On most newer cards the dashboard is digital and back-lit. Some of these cars also have very bright daytime running lights. What I have seen is that some owners inadvertently turn off the auto lights, and think they have lights on because they can see where they are going, but they lack any rear lights because the lights are not technically on. I've seen this in Jeep vehicles as an example. The only way to know your lights are on in a Jeep for example is a little green headlight icon, that is easily ignored. Something more needs to be on the dash when lights are in the off position at night.

Tl the contact owns a 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee. While driving various speeds with the headlights illuminated, the headlights ceased to function without warning. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Sometimes when driving at night with the bright lights on and you pull the lever back to dim them to oncoming traffic the headlights turn off too, literally leaving you in the dark. It happened last night and has happened several times in the past. I feel this is a very dangerous and scary situation that should never happen!.
