Description of the problem	First of all, this is one of the most common complaints of the entire jeep compass line and it still has not been recalled. My jeep compass 2010 stalls randomly when i drive and is a major hazard. 2 mechanics including a local dealer are unable to diagnose the problem (which is a common theme in all of complaints regarding the jeep compass). It has almost caused an accident several times with me (another common theme) and it may eventually take a death for it to be on the radar for an actual recall. It has happened in the driveway driving 5mph or on the highway driving 70mph. It is extremely frightening. There is no warning sign. The car drives incredibly well when it is not stalling. Shame on the nhtsa for not recalling this yet. I will never purchase a jeep again since there is no support from their end or even from the national service here. I got scared the last time it stalled and jammed my finger on the steering wheel to steer it to the shoulder on a highway driving 70mph! The car had about 84k miles on it, but the stalling happens on even the newer models with less than 2,000 miles driven!!

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?
