| Description of the problem | Making a left turn, engine shut off no power, stated i must be in park to shift warning lights flashing (all kinds). Would not restart for about 15 minutes. Ran fine prior to this. Finally restarted and drove directly to dealership (its only about a mile away). Explained what happened they had no clue why this would happen but they checked oil which was very low (which leads me to believe they have seen this issue before). Changed oil and so far so good. Complaint - why would engine shut off because of that? Why would a brand new car with under 30,000 miles burn that much oil? Why didn't the indicator tell me there was low oil or low oil pressure? If this thing burns that much oil within the allotted oil change time - may need to look for another vehicle - this is dangerous if the car shuts off on a freeway or in busy traffic. |
