Description of the problem	Following day vehicle completely shut down while driving on the interstate at 55 mph . Dealership contacted and vehicle brought in for inspection. Dealer concluded that engine had no oil, although internal indicators failed to advise and showed vehicle had 60% oil life remaining and 3000 miles until scheduled oil change. Dealer advised that vehicle is known to burn oil, this has happened to me 3x already. The jeep chereokee manual states oil changes should be done every 8,000 miles. I have been getting my oil changes way before the stated requirement of 8000. There is clearly something wrong with my engine. I have a 10 month baby and i am terrified of driving this vehicle. It randomly shuts down and stalls. Iam so scared for my life everytime i drive this vehicle and it is all i have . I bought this car brand new!! My engine is clearly defective and should be replaced.
