Description of the problem	I bought a 2016 jeep compass brand new from the dealership. After only three years (72,500 miles), the transmission completely failed while i was driving on a major highway. The jeep, which is a manual 5 speed transmission, would not shift into any gears. It made horrendous grinding noises as the vehicle failed and failed to shift into gear. Prior to it completely dying, it was stalling out on me and slipping out of second gear while driving it. This is a safety concern, not to mention how disappointing that a car which is only three years old would have a transmission that completely failed on it. The jeep was well-maintained and garage kept. It was never driven anywhere except main roads and highways.

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.
