While driving ALL headlights suddenly went out. This has happened a few times now while waiting for our service appointment. It has occurred in both high and low beam configurations. The lights have failed when the dash switch is in the Auto OR in the On positions. The vehicle is definitely available for inspection, however it is currently being serviced for this defect. Failure of all forward-facing lights could be fatal at speed. We were in our driveway and on small town streets when it has occurred, but next time? We showed the service representative a video of the failure recorded 09/21/2022 in our driveway, high beams on and switch in Auto position when all lights failed. The video is available to the federal safety agency if requested. Upload formats, below, don't include the MOV (iPhone video) format. The lights failed without visible warnings, messages, or symptoms. I did not check for OBDII codes.

Service shifter light came on while driving, had it towed to the dealership, 5 days later they said nothing is wrong with it so I took it home. A week later, service shifter light came back on while I was driving on a side street, all the lights on the dash came on, unable to control anything, lost steering, then vehicle shut off in the middle of the road. Tried to turn the vehicle back on to no luck, sat waiting, then after 15 mins the accessory engine came on, lights flashing, windshield wipers going and the message "do not park until safe at your destination." took the jeep straight to the dealership, dealer plugs it is 70+ miscommunication errors pull up. Dealer calls me 3 days later to come get my jeep and says nothing is wrong with it and they cannot diagnose it unless they see it in the act. I refuse to go pick it up as there is something wrong and I am not driving it with my 9month old.
