Description of the problem	While driving the engine cut out. I drifted to the side of the road, put it in park and restarted it. There wasn't any message there was a problem. It was fine for a couple of days and then while driving to work the same thing happen again. I was able to get to the side without being hit. On checking the internet it showed others had the same problem and was related to oil. . Checked oil and it was low. I took it to the dealership and they confirmed the 2. 4 cuts off even if the vehicle is in motion with no warning when oil is low. No one ever told me this. Had i been on a busier multi lane road i may have been involved in an accident. I have never needed to check my oil between service on a newer car before this is an unsafe default to low oil. It puts the driver and public in danger. Had i been told the vehicle may shut off while i was driving i would never have bought the car. I cant believe that they are allowed to have this as a feature with no warning.
