2016 Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE Exterior Lighting Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1619913

Brand	JEEP
Model	GRAND CHEROKEE
Model Year	2016
File date	18/11/19
Component	EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	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).
