Description of the problem	While driving on the highway on two separate occasions now, my jeep suddenly loses power and decelerates. The engine light, electronic throttle control light and stability control light come on, the jeep runs very rough and will not accelerate. After pulling over and turning the car off and back on the engine light stays on and the other lights go off but after driving a bit the problem occurs again. When scanned the code is u0401 stating that there is an issue with communication to the pcm. There is only 88700 miles on the jeep. The power train warranty is good to 100000 but the dealership states that the pcm is not covered under the drivetrain warranty. After researching online there are many reports of this happening to othe jeep compasses and patriots. Both times this has happened on the highway it has been a particularly scary situation due to the fact that the jeep rapidly decelerates and the traffic behind me has had difficulty slowing as quickly. This happened 12/16/18 as well as 12 /6/18 and 12/17/18
