Two problems related to headlights turn off while driving have been reported for the 2016 Jeep Renegade. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
At less than 100 miles on 2016 Jeep Renegade trailhawk appeared to have had an electrical issue where when started alerts are displayed in the message center for for various lights (brake light failure, headlight failure, turn signal failure, etc. ) the left turn signal began blinking slowly as if it was hesitating, the right turn signal blinked extremely fast, but the headlights and brake lights appeared to be working. This started happening on day 2 of ownership, as I was navigating through a parking lot after starting the car. I drove it a short distance to another parking lot, turned off the car, and waited a couple minutes before restarting the car. The problem continued.
At less than 1000 miles on my 2016 Jeep Renegade trailhawk appeared to have had an electrical issue where when started alerts for all lights are being seen (brake light failure, headlight failure, turn signal failure, fog light failure, etc. ) however all lights appear to work. The only anomoly that I saw was that when the turn signals were engaged they blinked faster than normal. In older vehicles this was a sign of an electrical short. After shutting the car off for approximately 30 minutes, the alerts clear. I have had the issue occur again at 1800 miles. Again the alarms cleared out after some time.
