Description of the problem	I purchased the jeep febuary 28th 2013, from orr honda texarkana tx. I was not informed the vehicle had any problems or recalls at that time. Within a couple days of having the vehicle i noticed the seat belts would spontaneously unlock and open. I also noticed that the vehicle seemed to have an acceleration problem it was sluggish and sounded like it was not changing gears. When i was stopped to make a turn and began to turn the car stalled on me in the middle of the intersection and quit, it started back and i was able to get out of harms way. Although i have had it at the dealership for the recalls and the problems i described over five times a total of 2 full months combined and was told the recall issues were resolved i picked it up on 3/15/14 from the dealership and drove it home, it died on me while driving, i was able to get it to the side of the street and sat there until it started again, i got it home got up to go to work the next morning and although all lights and alarms are working it only clicks when u try to start it. It will start up immediately with a boost. I have not and will not drive it due to the stalling and dying while driving. I am a pediatric home nurse and i transport disabled children so not only is my life in danger with this vehicle so are the lives of the disabled children i care for during my job. During the months it was in and out of the shop i missed so many work days i had to give up my position and start a different position due to the lack of reliability of this vehicle. I do not want the vehicle anymore nor will i ever trust it again! At this point i am paying over $600 a month for payment and insurance on a vehicle that is not safe to drive. I have nearly a 19,000 debt on this vehicle and it has been nothing but a nightmare.

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.
