Description of the problem	I was driving at approximately 40 mph and had to slow down for traffic. As i did, many of the dash lights came on include electronic stability and brake. They went on and off as a i slowed and then speeded up so that i could pull of the road. As i tried to pull off the car just died and i lost steering control. I coasted into a side parking lot and couldn't go any further. Towed to dealership and was told it's the alternator. So there is a recall on the alternator coming in three weeks. But in the meantime i have to shell out $1,200 for an alternator and new battery and hope that chrysler fixes this [xxx] up and decides to bother issuing me a refund. And then once the recall - that everyone has known is coming for two months - finally does come out, i have to have the [xxx] thing replaced again. And hope that in the meantime, chrysler actually figures out how to fix the problem - which it says it doesn't currently know how to do.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
