Description of the problem	My 2017 jeep compass has only 14,000 miles on it. I made a turn today and noticed the low oil indicator came on. I immediately told my husband and he checked the oil and it wasn't even showing up on the dip stick. It caused my engine to turn off in an intersection and i had to hope that i could get out of the intersection without getting hit. I managed to get it turned back on and the emergency brake was automatically engaged when the engine turned off. I disengaged the emergency brake and started my engine and made it home. We did add 3 quarts of oil. So, i researched this "problem" online and found many people having the same problem with this engine burning oil like crazy. I'm not sure if my engine is damaged or not (due to the oil being basically dry). I am planning on taking it in to the dealership. We added oil to get it back to the normal level, but to me we just covered up the problem. A new motor should not burn through 4 1/2 quarts of oil in 5,000 miles. Something needs to be done. I feel like my $30,0000. 00 vehicle is a lemon.
