2016 Jeep CHEROKEE Engine Problems, Complaints and Defects

File date	22/05/19
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle loses power while driving, engine shuts down, steering locks and the dash lights up with a message that says put vehicle and "park" and then select desired gear. I have two small special needs children. This has happened 3 times in the last two months. I keep my vehicle up to date on maintenance/service. I read over 100 people's exact same complaints on line. It doesn't make sense that i am paying a car payment, have less than 45,000 miles on a less than 3 year old vehicle, and having these kind of safety concerns. We have one vehicle, limited means, and tons of therapy appointments. Today, my car died with no warning on a busy road, gives me approximately 10 seconds to pull to safety before there is no speed/ability to manuever the vehicle. It is ridiculous that the risk is so high, and the number of complaints listed on line show a serious issue with this among hundreds of vehicles by jeep and nothing. The dealerships/service continue to make comments like "we were unable to replicate the issue". To be specific: driving at about 25 miles per hour, straight following a right turn.... Lost power. Lights went on the dash, message above appeared. It took two tries to restart to get me out of the middle of the road.

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.
