Was driving my jeep at night with my infant in the back seat, 55mph. suddenly all the lights in the dashboard and parking assistance lights in the back all lite up. at the same time the heater stopped working and my headlights went out as well. they came back on about 5 seconds later. i continued to drive when it did it again. i switched the lights out of auto. the same problem occurred again but this time the head lamps did not go out, all the warning lights on the dash still flashed and heat went off. it resumed the whole way home but never fully lost power. it still does this on a daily basis, multiple times. i feel as if it's getting worse but no one can diagnose and figure out what's wrong with it. considering the airbag warning and others(all of them) light up, i'm concerned for my safety and my sons. today as i was driving it seemed worse. even turn signal lights are effected when this happens. today my speedometer, gas gage... everything on my dashboard lite up and my meters quit working. it all resumed as normal after it happened but it happened approximately 15 times during a 10 minute drive. sometimes back to back to back. it also happened while sitting at a stop light when i noticed my turn signals also went out at that time, while stationary and while turning. happens no matter if stationary or in motion.

This vehicle has been given to the dealer twice for the 14v-438 safety recall spanning 2014-2015 and twice it hasn't been fixed. it's not the dealers fault (apparently) because whoever is supposed to be sending these parts is not doing so. first attempt, the dealer had no parts because chrysler hadn't sent any parts for the recall. second attempt could not be completed because chrysler did not send enough parts, it takes three i'm told, to make this repair. so you guys keep sending me these recall things, i keep taking the car in, but chrysler obviously doesn't care enough to fix the potential problem because they won't send the parts to the dealer. but we are supposed to take these recalls seriously ?? chrysler doesn't. they no doubt are hoping i'll sell the car but ir's a 9 year old(new) vehicle with only 22000 miles on it and is in cherry condition. i bought it new and "it" will probably outlive me.
