Comments the dash lights and the headlights flicker off and on at night. they come on in the off position and turn off in the on position. this has been going on for almost a year. i have not had it checked out for fear that it will be costly. anyone have suggestions on a resolution? dash, interior lights, door locks, and trunk. don't work trouble lights all flash then headlights and dash lights go out. i turn the headlight switch from "auto" to "manual" and the headlights come back on. dash lights continue to flicker intermittently but at least i can drive it - afraid this switch trick will quit working one night while i'm on an unlit country road! 2005 chrysler 300 189,000 mi, the dash lights and the headlights flicker off and on at night. they come on in the off position and turn off in the on position. this has been going on for almost a year. on going issue...concern that this could be a safety issue to myself and the public.

Low oil levels, oil light and check engine light always on. kept taking the car in to have it checked, we were told nothing was wrong, just keep adding oil. that made no sense as there had to be a reason for this. was finally diagnosed as oil sludge and engine was destroyed and needed to be replaced. also, because it caused the lights to be on for so long, i now need to have the computer replaced that controls the sensors for those.
