Description of the problem	Just bought with 40k miles one month ago (1/21/2017). 1 week after buying, while driving through the middle a busy city intersection, the engine shuttered and shut itself off. I was right in middle of intersection. The display indicated that i had to put the car in neutral to restart. I did, but it restarted and pressing gas didn't even rev the engine. I waited about 30 seconds and restarted. It worked and i drove away. Found out about safety recall that day and had jeep dealer do the recall the next day.. Then, 2 weeks later, i was in park at the vet with the engine on, the engine stuttered and did the exact same thing. I restarted it and again, pressing the gas... Even flooring it... Did not even rev the engine at all. I waited about 30 seconds, restarted, and drove off fine. I got an oil change with full synth (0w 20) oil the next day, because of some reports that the oil could be part of the problem. Then only a week later (yesterday, 2/18/17), i was on a trip to west virginia with my wife (140 miles from home), and was driving away from a stop light (turning right) and it did the exact same thing. The engine just shuttered and shut itself off while driving. I was lucky to drift close to the side of the road, but i didn't even get fully off the road, restarted, and no amount of pressing the gas would even rev the engine. I turned it off, waited 30 seconds, and restarted. It works, though it doesn't seem smooth any more, but now the check engine light is on. I've had many vehicles, but have never had a problem like this. I will be going back to jeep to have them look at it, but i don't want to keep paying for visits where they can't find anything (like a lot of folks with this particular model on the boards). I love this vehicle, but i'm actually afraid to drive it. ... Updated 05/11/17 *bf

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
