While operating the vehicle, the instrument lights, radio and compass lights flicker intermittently or become very bright for a few seconds then become very dim for a few seconds. I have only noticed this occurrence while driving at night when the headlights are in use. During this event, the headlights also appear to become brighter or go dim at the same time.

I have a 2000 chrysler 300m and when the headlights are on they will go off and on , on there own while driving also the dash panel will go completely out and back on I feel that this is a life and death situation with my vehicle I was wondering if you have other complaints on file as my dealer says there is nothing they can do for me.

Tl*the contact owns a 2000 chrysler 300m. While the engine was running, the headlights and instrument panel would flicker intermittently. On one occasion, the engine was turned off and the headlights were still flickering. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and repaired. The contact was unsure of what repairs were made; however, the failure still persists. The failure mileage was 12,000 and current mileage was 61,120.

When driving at night dashboard lights continuously flickered. When the lights flickered they fully illuminated. This caused a distraction to the driver. Dealership has replaced the headlamp switch, but the problem recurred.
