Description of the problem	While driving my vehicle it just shut down without any warning and i had to guide it to the side of the road to restart it. Thankfully i was driving in a neighborhood where i could do this, it did this a couple of times in one outing, now its every so often. So far it has not done it while i'm out on an interstate but i try to stay close to home til it can be fixed. Plus when i have on my lights my dashboard lights blink on and off . Then here recently the air bag light started flashing and a few days ago it stayed on and hasn't shut off. I've talked to the jeep dealership about this and they said that they don't have the parts to fix the recall item p41/ nhtsa 14v-438 and i'm liable for the airbag issue. From what i have read online all of these issues are connected. I received a letter on the recall a few months back but have not heard anything back on when i can get it fixed at the dealership. Please advise on what steps i should take to get the parts for this recall so i can enjoy driving my vehicle again. Thanks again

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.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
