At random times while driving, while in park, and just after startup, all dashboard gauges, lights, and power goes out, headlights turn off, but the engine still runs. I cannot see what is in front of me at night, I cannot tell my speed, I cannot see my fuel level, etc. The outage lasts from 2-30 seconds before every single warning light will illuminate for a few seconds, or flicker on and off, and then return to normal. I replaced the ignition 2 years ago from a previous recall notice. This is extremely dangerous because I never know when it will happen, it could happen at night on a heavily trafficked street and I lose all power and lights!

I purchased my 05 jeep grand cherokee 3.7l v6 with 79k miles on it june 21, 2016. In july of 2017, it started to bog down with a constant shutter when starting up and accelerating, the cel was also on. I took it in to have the cel checked out and it was showing 22 codes saying that the o2 sensor had a high voltage circuit. Upon examinng and testing the o2 sensor there was nothing found to be wrong. A couple weeks later the cel came on again, but this time it showed the same o2 sensor was running lean and rich at the same time. I replaced the sensor at that time. Now it is showing another code p0430 and the timing chain for the electronic shift transmission is jumping. I was informed this happens to these transmissions all the time and there is no repair for it. All I can do is drive it until it goes and buy a new transmission. This is not fair
I was driving on the highway going about 65-70 and I lost all throttle response so my speed fell tremendously and I put on my hazards and I had to get over avoiding traffic. Almost got into a wreck before I got into the emergency lane. Once I pulled over I turned it off and turned my car back on and everything seemed fine. The same thing happened to me twice before I got home. It was my scariest ride home. I called the dealer ship and I took it in. They told me to replace my throttle body so I did this and had it reprogrammed. Drove it for a few days and it did the same thing. They said this it might be a bad throttle body but I've been reading around and a lot of other people have this problem and there dealerships has no idea what it's is.
