Description of the problem	I was backing up my daughters driveway. Her driveway is a little steep and when i went to give the jeep more gas the rpms dropped from 1500 to idle and then back to 1500 rpms really quick, it did this a couple times. The dog ended up on the floor of the car, friends standing outside the car though i didn't know how to drive. I finally had to turn the jeep around and go up her driveway in the forward direction. We went out to eat later and when i came back i tried backing up her driveway again and it did the same thing. I took the jeep into the dealer on 6/29/15 with 990 miles on it. The dealer updated the pcm and tcm and retested it but could not get it to fail. It failed again about 3 months later on labor day weekend, 2015. Again backing up my daughters driveway. I contacted the jeep service manager and he said they probably can't fix it if it doesn't set a code. (great) the jeep hasn't failed backing up again but it did fail on the highway at 65 miles per hour completely shutting down and not restarting. (see complaint #10819212) like other jeep owners i've noticed the jeep stays in third gear to long at low speed, especially if you have to make a left turn in front of on coming traffic. I've resorted to down shifting the transmission myself so i can have some power to make the turn without getting hit. ( note to chrysler, i'm a first time jeep buyer, keep doing nothing about the engine and transmission problems and you can find your jeep at a ford or chevy dealership....... Real soon).

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.
