Description of the problem	While driving the entire electrical system fails; lights start flashing, heat goes out, all system warning lights flash ( brakes, tire pressure, service 4 wheel drive system, check engine light comes on), i was able to continue to drive the car but the lights flashed continuously for approximately 15 miles. This has happened multiple times since i purchased the suv june 2005. The dealership runs test by say they cannot find anything wrong. I have read on the internet that this is happening to many owners of the 2005 jeep grand cherokee and the dealers and mechanics at the dealership cannot find anything wrong. This is a dangerous situation as many people also loose power and the suv shift into low gear. I am afraid to drive my jeep now because the check engine light keeps coming on and off. I am going back to the dealership again for some more stupid "i did not find anything wrong" statements. Originally i was told it was because i had a remote starter so i has it disconnected and the problem still exists.
