Description of the problem	Jeep grand cherokee recall - i have had numerous issues with my 2012 jeep grand cherokee, primarily electrical related. My car was making a high pitched sound, it wasn't very loud at first, but progressively got worse. It wouldn't start at first - then had to try to start it a few times before it would start. The electrical system seemed to be malfunctioning worse. I assumed it needed a new battery, so i bought one and the guy at autozone installed it. I drove to my restaurant and it started acting up again (high pitch sound returned, had trouble starting it). As i was driving back home on the road (45 mph) - i saw all electrical workings cut off and back on (the red lighting lights flashed). As i tried to pull over, the entire electrical system failed. My power steering, anti-lock breaks, radio and everything electrical stopped working. I almost got in a wreck but it took every bit of strength i had to stop and steer the vehicle - i turned into a shopping center and steered toward an incline and eventually stopped (almost hit a car, then almost hit an elderly couple pedestrians). I had my car towed to hendrick chrysler fayetteville, nc. They said the pcm was out. It was still under warranty so they replaced it - but my vehicle has never been properly repaired. My check engine light comes on and off all the time and have had numerous electrical wiring issues (before and after the pcm) was replaced. My vehicle (when the pcm went out) could have easily killed me and anyone on the road at that time. The dealership keeps saying that none of that has anything to do with the check engine light or any of the other recalls - but i cannot accept that. I feel this vehicle - 2012 jeep grand cherokee - is an extremely dangerous hazard to all road. I have also had numerous other recalls for this vehicle.
