Description of the problem	I purchased a 2018 jeep renegade at the end of july 2018, it had worked well until the end of june 2019. I was on a road trip from south carolina to colorado and i was on the road for a week with no issues, but on june 28th as i was driving on i-70 through kansas at about 80 mph when my engine began to stall out. At first it was dropping about 10 - 15 mph, but then it was quickly dropping 30 - 40 mph. I was able to make it into the right most lane, but a check engine light and service transmission light appeared on my dashboard while my engine stalled out completely. I had to restart my car a few times, but after a few restarts the notifications disappeared. Every time the engine stalled out, i would lose the use of my gas and brake pedals. The electronics were still working, but driving was non-responsive. I was able to safely nurse my car into the nearest city and eventually get towed to the nearest jeep dealership. The dealership was able to look at the jeep the next day (june 29th) and did some computer diagnostics and told me that the jeep was good to go. I made it about 180 miles and had just gotten back onto i-70 in colorado when the issue returned. Engine stalled out, dropped speed to zero mph and pedals became unresponsive. I had to wait several hours to be towed to aurora, co to a jeep dealership (larry h miller jeep). My jeep was with larry h miller from june 29th to july 3rd. They told me that they drove it several hundred miles, despite my odometer not matching their information, and told me that there was no issue with my jeep. I made it 10 miles from the dealer before the stalling issue returned. This almost caused a crash on a congested narrow highway in denver, co. When i called the dealer, they told me they couldn't help and to see another dealer. I was towed to a third dealer, who was also not able to find any 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.
