| Description of the problem | 2016 jeep compass recall - the power and engine light comes on and the car loses power. I have to cut it off and restart.

It's only coasting along. This has happened on the highway and in the city. It doesn't matter what speed i am going. Very scary, i have to pull over on the highway to turn off the ignition and turn it back on to continue. I'm afraid eventually it won't turn back on. It started happening around may 2018.
