Description of the problem	While driving at posted x-press way speeds (70 mph) the car suddenly went dead. The power steering, radio, a/c etc. Shut off. Fortunately traffic was light and i pulled off to the shoulder of the road. After the vehicle come to a stop. I turned the key to the left (off position) than turned back to the right on position. The car started immediately and i continued on. The car will also stall immediately after starting it and i will have to sometimes start it to two to three times before it stays running. I had the problem looked at a few years ago. First they said it was a bad key. When that didn't fix the problem they said it was a bad computer board. That worked for a few months and than the intermittent starting again and has been that way ever since. I know older model jeeps are going to recalled but i think the recall should include 2008 model years also.
