Description of the problem	I have previously entered a similar complaint for this same vehicle. The issue is that the vehicle stalls/shuts off for no reason while driving. Chrysler is unable to provide a reliable fix. This began in may 2012 - my vehicle simply shut off while driving in any number of conditions whether it be on the highway, side roads, etc. I removed all excess keys from my key ring to ensure that it was not the key being too heavy. Brought this in to my dealership, they replaced the win control module but couldn't guarantee that this would fix the problem. Vehicle stalled once while driving unexpectedly about 9 months later. Then vehicle stopped twice in october 2013. At that time i brought the vehicle to another dealership. They at first wanted to replace the win module. When i told them that was the fix from before and it didn't work, they advised that the front control module be replaced, as there was a recall on this but my vehicle was one day past the date of manufacturing impact in the recall, but was having the same exact issue. Replaced front control module in october 2013. Vehicle stopped unexpectedly while driving again twice in march 2014 - on march 20th and march 21st. Vehicle is back at the dealer where they again want to replace the win module. Again, this fix was provided previously and did not fix the car. Either the wins being produced by chyrsler are all faulty and i somehow have gotten 2 in a row or there is an underlying issue that cannot be found or addressed. This issue is very prevalent with 2008 grand cherokees. Chrysler is sitting on a very dangerous issue.

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.
