I have an 07 unlimited 21k, has anyone had all lights on dash come on or "flicker" or lost all lights while driving? Now the conditions were 3 different kinds, for instance I was driving down the road at about 40 mph with the radio turned to max volume, and the 2nd time I was on the highway in silence traveling at about 80 mph, then the last time i was pulling into a parking space and in gear 1 at about 2 -5 mph , now I have notice particularly when I listen to any music with excessive bass, there is a slight dim in the gauge lights and the headlights, should this be happening?

What sound system do you have? If you're listening to the music that loud, it may be "Normal".

The other day when I unlocked my Jeep, with my key fob, the horn honked once which I thought was strange. As I got closer to my Jeep I could hear the radio playing. When I opened the door the radio turned off. This is the second time it has happened. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

I have had all of my dash lights, warning lights, gauges etc. light up while I was driving before, then flash off, and this was only weeks after buying the Jeep, no messing with electrical at all, the engine stayed running, the door chime went off too, it happened a few months later, and nothing since. I just ignored it cause everything continued operating just fine, just that momentary glitch
