This problem started in my overhead lighting through the dimmer switch in 2012. Only in June of 2013 did it move to the dash, taillights, head lights, & fox lights. My local D'Ambrosio Jeep dealership said they had no idea what was causing the problem. It has become dangerous when driving at night.
Please, any ideas?

Couple years ago, I was driving my jeep Cherokee when my light began to flicker, it happened several other times after that, I call the dealer-ship,
I was told that it might cost me between $300 to $400 to fix the problem, at the time I did not have the money to fix the car, someone told me to go to auto zone for a free diagnosis, but to my surprise It was the battery for my KEY REMOTE CONTROL for my car, I change it and it worked for two years, I thought that was the problem fixer, but the problem came back 2years later, i changed the battery again but It is not working, I changed my job to night shift and every 3 to 4 nights on my way home, the interior lights start to flicker then the headlights go off, my temporary fix is to turn off the light and put it back on, I also use the hi-beam. I am not a Mechanic or a specialist but the nights when the lights flicker I think has to do with the way I start my jeep , because sometimes the ignition makes a funny click and the light flickers, that is when the light goes off. I would like to fix the problem but if the problem affects other jeep owners I think it should have a RECALL on the problem!!!
