I have a 2010 jeep liberty sport and it's headlights continue to go off on me while on the highway and it's only noticeable at night in which is not safe. I've changed both light bulbs in which worked and then went out within 20 mins agai at night on the highway. Then I changed the 30amp/relay. Then I changed the dimmer switch. All of this did not work. Then the dealer changed the windshield that is located on the right hand side and it worked for about a week with the passenger side light going out but working when I shimmy the cord of conductor. But like it did previously it's now not just the passenger light as both lights are again not working. And they are starting to flicker then just goes out altogether to where now the shimmy is no longer effective. Now I've done all I can do on the electrical realm but it seems as though everything I've attempted is just temporary or does not work at all. What is the problem. Please help!

2010 jeep liberty limited 4x4 began to intermittently start and not have headlights, sometimes the lights would not come on at all, other times only the parking lights would work, and other times only the headlights would work. It was taken to both a jeep dealer as well as a local garage and no one could find an issue. They tried replacing the switch but this did not help either. Eventually, the issue got worse and the lights have now shut off while driving at night on highways, local roads, ect. And has become unsafe to drive. Jeep still claims to never have seen anything like this however multiple complaints exists online for similar complaints, a local garage told me about the tipm issues and even upon suggesting the replacement of this part, jeep insisted this couldn't be the issue. Now the lights are really acting up, shutting off while driving, flashing frequently, only parking lights work sometimes, sometimes only one light works, and other issues are beginning (starting randomly, horn / alarm randomly going off,ect) jeep still refusing that this is the issue and wants to replace / repair other things first. Currently looking into replacement tipm personally, as at this point, the jeep liberty is unsafe to drive, especially at night.

I was driving at night and the headlights just stopped working. I was extremely concerned about my safety as I had no headlights and cars approaching me were flashing me to turn of my headlights. I couldnt pass the ma. Saftey inspection because of this. I brought the car to my mechanic and he has to replace the totally integrated control module at a cost of $900.00. This is absolutly a safety issue and should be recalled!

First incident was in november to where my headlights quit working. I switched out the dual switch but that did not help and then tried cleaning and switching the relays around in the tipm and that helped somewhat. Now I have a whole set of problems. My wipers will not shut off and headlights will not shut off unless I turn car off, and my blinkers are not working at all. I had to pull the fuse for the wipers but cannot find the fuse for the blinkers because it is part of the tipm as well as the headlights. I am worried that with these little issues coming up that eventually bigger ones will happen if the tipm is the problem and chrysler knows about this, why isn't there a recall. I do not see why I should dish out all this money to repair something that is a defect.

I was driving home from the convenience store in my town when the headlights just stopped working. The only lights I had were the parking lights. Car were flashing me to tell me to turn my lights on but they would not come on. I have found out by researching on line that there is a defect with the totally integrated power module. I contacted jeep customer care and they would not offer any financial assistance. This is a very dangerous safety problem that chrysler jeep should recall. The total cost to repair this is $900.00
