Headlights failing or too dim by model year
What owners say
Complete loss of power on highway multiple times. Every light on dash flashes and headlights flicker
2016 jeep wrangler 4x4 experiencing electrical issues. The wipers stay on at all times, wiper switch does not work. Lights stay on at all times, switch does not work. Horn does not work. Blinkers do no work. High/low beam also inoperable. Dash lights extremely low, can barely see them and we are 35 yr old owners with good 20/25 vision. For lack of better words or mechanical terms, having a vehicle with this specific issue is like driving something possessed. Tipm on this vehicles are known to be faulty and fca has agreed to recall certain vehicles with similar issues. The vehicle was stationary when issued came to light.
Currently a recall for a sensor of the airbags. I installed mopar LED headlights. They say the headlights get destroyed during the fix and they put stock headlights back in, not what I currently have. They are factory made mopar headlights that cost approx $950.00. I don't want to get this recall done because I don't think I should lose out on that much money. Chrysler designed these headlights so that can only be put in once. They should suffer the consequences of that design by replacing them for a safety recall, not have me lose out on the money I spent making my vehicle safer.
Head lights extremely poor lighting and visibility. Can leave high beams on and no one flashes me to change to low beams. I find it very dangerous to drive at night. We live in the mountains which is why we purchased the jeep in the first place. We have had them checked at dealership and they say nothing is wrong. I feel that jeep needs to recall headlights and replace with a better light. Thank you for your time.
