NHTSA Complaint #10825591 — 2004 DODGE DURANGO

IN EARLY NOVEMBER 2015 WHILE DRIVING 45-50 MPH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RANDOMLY WENT HAYWIRE AND ALL THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND THE INTERIOR LIGHTS AT THE SAME TIME. ABOUT TWO WEEKS LATER I REALIZED THAT THE OUTSIDE HEADLIGHTS WERE ALSO FLICKERING WHEN THE INSIDE LIGHTS FLICKERED. I TOOK TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND AFTER 4 DAY'S I WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT RE-PRODUCE THE ISSUE. I QUIT DRIVING AFTER DARK DUE TO THE LACK OF CONTROL IN KEEPING THE LIGHTS ON THEN NOTICED I WOULD HAVE INTERMITTENT FLICKERING WITH THE HEADLIGHT KNOB OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING THE DODGE FORUMS AND RULING OUT THE FUSES I PURCHASED A NEW "REDESIGNED" HEADLIGHT SWITCH AND INSTALLED IT. TOOK CARE OF ALL THE FLICKERING LIGHT ISSUES AND NOW I CAN DRIVE AT NIGHT AGAIN.
