Description of the problem	I purchased this vehicle brand new from the dealership on 12/31/13. This vehicle is 2 years old and has approximately 75,000 miles on it. It has had a minimum of 2 recalls on it since i had it. I would drive the car nearly all day (no more than 50 miles per day) and suddenly once i approached a stop sign at a very busy intersection and was about to cross it, the car engine shut down. I could hear the radio. Note: my toddler child was with me. I attempted to start the vehicle several times but as soon as i put it in the drive gear, it would shut off again. I had to sit to the stop sign with traffic approaching for nearly 10 minutes before the car would allow me to start and put it in gear to drive it home. When i took it to the dealership for a diagnostic test, they could not give me a full diagnosis as they stated that the vehicle had to be cooled. I had no way home as i live outside of the dealership's shuttle radius and was offered a rental car but i had to pay for it. I had no choice but to trust that i would make it back home with it. I did make it home but it shut off in the yard. I had it towed a few days later to the dealership for further testing and it was revealed to me that the transmission had to be replaced. I am bothered by this because this is a brand new vehicle with less than 100,000 miles and is 2 years old. Also, this could have been a safety hazard for me and my child as it could have shut down in the middle of the intersection in which we were crossing.

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.
