Upon starting vehicle, the instrumentation cluster has lost all power. There was a recall for this issue prior and jeep is stating that my vehicle was not part of the recall.
On two separate occasions, the vehicle shut off while driving. Error messages indicated "electrical failure" and to "service charging system". In the second instance the check engine light came on.
