Description of the problem	This has happened sporadically and luckily not on the freeway. What happens is that i am just driving along and the engine just shuts down with no warning. All other systems are still functioning (ie radio), but anything related to the engine is shut down. Car can be easily restarted in either the park or neutral position. This problem, when it happens, usually occurs within a few minutes of starting the car and driving. Has not happened during a drive (meaning that i have been driving for a bit). This car was part of the recall back in 2011 and had the win module replaced. However, even though my car was part of the target group of 2010 routans that were manufactured during the recalled period, i am not part of the recall because the win module was replaced back in 2011. What is funny is that 2009 models who also had their win modules replaced during the earlier recall can get the necessary repairs under this new recall (15v194000). I have read complaints from others with similar issues as me and also had their car serviced under the prior recall, and we continue to have the same issue of the engine shutting down for no reason. Why are 2010 models repaired under the earlier recall excluded, but not 2009 recall-repaired models not?

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.
