Description of the problem	I currently lease a 2015 jeep grand cherokee ltd. While driving at 65mph the car downshifted without any input from driver nearly causing a collision. In a separate incident, car traveling about 65mph car upshifted independently while in drive gear. Car finally stopped safely, restarted and was normal. Another incident, car had been parked with engine off for more than 20 minutes in parking place. Vehicle put into reverse, showing on instrument panel, gear shift, and backup remote camera. When accelerator pressed while in reverse, vehicle shot forward nearly hitting brick wall. Vehicle shifting is slow to react when stopped and then put in reverse and then drive when parking, merging into traffic, etc. Recall 16v240000 was installed immediately upon complaint to dealer. Vehicle still shifts roughly while in motion. Contacted chrysler and dealer about dangerous conditions to no avail. Dealer cannot help without approval of chrysler capital :leasing to change out vehicle! I could not live with myself if vehicle should act on its own and kill or hurt someone else! I have never had an accident in more than 50 years of driving and have driven and owned more than 10 different makes of vehicles, including 5 jeep grand cherokees. Jeep's brand has been damaged irreparably when a vehicle's manufacturer refuses to take a dangerous vehicle off the road after multiple recalls for the same model and others in its model line! It is also noted that the first 11 digits of the vin (with similar problems are within one number of mine), appears on this website! When first speaking with fca employees, the onus was put on the operator, not the vehicle! Fca needs to be accountable for their own products! Fca refused additional help because vehicle wasn't taken to dealer enough times! Issues do not show on diagnostics. Vehicle mileage approx. 3600 at time of incidents.

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.
