2016 Jeep CHEROKEE Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	On 01/16/2021 i was driving the jeep at highway speeds when suddenly the transmission would not shift from 4th to 5th and my accelerator peddle was unresponsive. Upon getting home i pulled the obd and received code p0887 which was associated with a recall for this vehicle and the recall outlined the symptoms i was having to a t. Upon calling jeep after reading the recall i learned this vin was not recalled even though the symptoms for the recall were the same we were experiencing. After reading about this online i think this is a wider recall that needs to happen because since the recall and service bulletin release date in june 2018 there has been multiple reports of this exact same problem. I have attached my diagnostic scan so you can see the freeze frame and code being thrown on the vehicle. That being said this car is undriveable right now through no fault of our own as all maintenance is up to date. Jeep wants to charge us $75 for the re-flash procedure and i realize i may not get out of paying that but i wanted to be sure you guys knew that the recall that was supposed to cover these years of jeeps failed to do so fully and should be reexamined. Thanks

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.
