Description of the problem	On tuesday, 9/15/2020 i went to turn on my jeep compass from my driveway and it would not start. However the check engine light came on. Later that evening i tried starting my jeep again, it started with no problem, and the check engine light was now off. On friday, 6/18/2020 i took my vehicle to advanced auto where they checked my battery, alternator, and starter - all 3 items came back good. On my way home from advanced auto i was stopped at a traffic light on south railroad street in palmyra, pa. When the light turned green for me to go, i went to release my foot off of the brake and the vehicle just completely shut off - it was just completely dead, nothing was working. I then went to put my foot back on the brake, and i felt pressure underneath the brake that wouldn't allow me to completely press it down. After a few minutes i tried turning my key and restarting the car, and it turned back on and i was thankfully able to drive it back home. On monday, 9/21/2020 i called a tow truck and had it towed to ladd-hanford in lebanon, pa. On 9/22/2020 kelsey shellehamer called me from ladd-hanford to inform me that the crankshaft sensor was faulty, that there had been recalls for the same model but just not my year, so she was going to call chrysler and see if they would pay for it anyway. On 9/23/2020 i received another call from kelsey. She stated that she spoke to chrysler, their warranty department and also mvp, all of which declined responsibility for fixing the part.

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.
