Issue ID	1613236

Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2005
File date	24/10/19
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	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!
