 Description of the problemI took ownership of the vehicle in december 2013. While driving, the vehicle engine has suddenly shut down on three separate occasions. The first time was in january 2014 in heavy highway traffic near colorado springs at about 50mph. I was able to move to the shoulder and turned the key off then restarted the engine. There seemed to be no adverse effects thereafter so i thought it was a random event. Then one week later driving on a lightly trafficked highway in wy at about 60mph, with the cruise control engaged, the engine again suddenly shut down and again i was able to steer to the shoulder and switched the ignition off and then restart it. When i returned home i had my local mechanic check the vehicle over and had him check the computer for faults. After the checkup i thought the issue was settled. Then in march driving down a winding mountain road near boise id the engine again suddenly shut down and i steered to the road side where i switched the ignition off and then restarted it. There after i read about this issue concerning some jeep models. I put my vin number in the jeep website and it said there were no recalls for it. I will take it to the dealer in hopes there is a resolution for this seemingly chronic serious problem. *js

    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.
