| Description of the problem | Engine oil and stalling. I went for my 2nd oil change 8/27/2018. The service tech and a mechanic listened when i said the oil was basically gone and my husband had to add 2 quarts. I even checked all the system warnings and there is none for low oil. When pulling out into an intersection the car totally shut off at 4 different times. So the mechanic said yes those 2. 4 engines burn 1 quart each 1000 miles and when the oil is low the engine will just stop. I asked about why there are no warning lights, the mechanic again said yes there is not one. Having a car just shut off is so dangerous. It could have been a terrible accident if another car was coming any of those 4 shut offs. Also my car jerks when shifting gears. The service tech commented i needed a computer upgrade. While there for the oil change supposedly the upgrade was done. It just jerk again the other day when the transmission was shifting. This car is just a year old - all of these issues are terrible and dangerous. |
