Default Dimmer light switch problems

Hey guys. Sometimes when I hit bumps, then the interior lights will flash on for a second. The dimmer thing doesn't feel like it's loose at all. The part that you adjust with your hand doesn't appear to be moving.

Once in inclement weather, it caused the stock alarm system to go off.

Is this a common problem? How can I rememdy it?

cool, thanks. I had my door handles changed about a month ago and maybe that caused it to go bad or something... It wasn't doing it prior to that.
