Description of the problem	I was driving my jeep grand cherokee on the street, turning the corner at an intersection, the engine lost all power, turned off, and i lost control of the power steering and vehicle in general. I almost hit a pedestrian that was walking on the sidewalk. This was a city street, the vehicle was in motion, and i was turning left. I have called the jeep dealership repeatedly telling them about this symptom of my vehicle. I also have a problem with the vehicle not starting when try to turn it on, the engine will turn over repeatedly but not fire up. After several attempts, it sometimes will start. It is an intermittent issue. Other times i need to call a tow truck. I feel this is directly related to recall r09, even though this recall was performed on my vehicle, these are the same symptoms described, so i think the problem is back even after the recall. It is a safety issue and needs to be addressed by chrysler/jeep. I have contacted the dealership at river oaks jeep/chrysler on 4807 kirby drive in houston tx, 77098, and paid for a diagnostic. They initially were not able to identify the problem. After a couple days they said the fuel pump was not holding pressure and would cost $2000 to replace. I can not afford that right now, and i declined repairs. I called the headquarters for chrysler/jeep dealership and asked for them to pay for the repairs as this is a safety issue and a malfunctioning part related to a recall, and they refused. This is documented under case #34923344. I feel chrysler jeep should either replace my fuel pump relay again, even after it was already done once under recall r09, or they should pay to replace the entire fuel pump, as they are not able to diagnose the source of the problem with 100% certainty. This is a safety issue related to the engineering of their vehicles.

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.
