Description of the problem	I purchased a brand new jeep grand cherokee limited in 2008. Almost from the very beginning i've had problems with this vehicle & had been going back & forth to the dealership for one repair after the other. Although the previous issues were serious, they did not rise to the level of being a health/safety hazard as my current problem does. In 2011, i started experiencing intermittent electrical failure; specifically, the vehicle would just stop no matter whether i was driving 70 on the hwy or 30 in a neighborhood. The vehicle would turn off without warning & i would be left trying (w/out any power steering) to coast to the side of the road with whatever momentum was left. Once to the side of the road, i put the vehicle in park, turned the ignition to the off position & wait a few seconds. I would then start the vehicle right up as if nothing had happened. I have taken the jeep in to the dealer where the problem could not be duplicated. I've gotten to the point where each time it stops, i call the dealer service dept just so the record would show that i called, reported the problem had occurred again & also to vent my frustration of this recurring problem. My concerns: 1) the stalling is happening more frequently 2) the problem can't be duplicated on cue 3) i can't get more than a condescending, what do you want tone from mgmt at the dealership & 4) there does not seem to be any sense of urgency from anyone other than myself . My questions: does there really have to be some type of accident or fatality before someone actually tries to find out why this is happening & fix it? Why aren't the service people equipped to do more than just speak to the vehicle owner as if we are stupid & like i'm just making up stories. Although they haven't been able to duplicate the problem, is there truly someone trying to find out what the problem is? Who do i need to contact? *js

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?
