Description of the problem	I bought my 2016 jeep cherokee limited new and for the first 100, 000 miles had no problem with it until one day i was driving down highway and my instrument cluster lit up like a christmas tree, the engine hit 5000 rpm at 45 mph and would red line if i went faster, i pulled over and could not shut vehicle off and radio, wipers and everything were going on their own including every warning light possible. After about 20 min idle i decided to disconnect the battery and reconnect and it started back up with engine light remaining on. I took to dealership they weren't sure why all codes were going off but checked and everything was fine and reset the light. A month later it happened again this time at 65mph during a snowfall on the highway but this time the steering wheel locked up i managed to brake and stop on highway with hazard lights on again disconnected battery and took to dealership, they said i needed to replace the computer so at a cost of nearly $2300 i did. No problems after that until it was raining one day and boom instrument panel lights up again, thankfully the steering wheel did not lock again. I take it back and they tell me there is nothing they can do about it but reset the light. Now i cant drive my jeep when it rains for fear of more issues. Fast forward 3 months to today, i am about a mile from my home and the dash lights up saying service shifter required. And all the lights for p,r,n,d are all red, i tried to turn off and start again with no luck the lights and warning stays on, the digital speedometer wont come up because the warning is there and i cant cycle it off. I googled the problem and noticed a great deal many others having the same issues at all different miles. I dont know what else to do at this point. I believe just the steering wheel locking up alone should be warrant enough for a recall before someone is not as lucky as i was.

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.

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