| Description of the problem | I was driving 44 mph headed to a red light intersection with 4 lanes of traffic coming the opposite direction when my jeep shut off i had no steering, no breaks and no engine running. I was moving forward at 44mph unable to control the vehicle and kept hitting the start button. After several attempts the car restarted saying low oil pressure and i was able to steer the car off the road before entering the intersection and getting kiled. Car was towed to dealership d'ambrosio auto group. Oil was checked and i was advised there was no oil in the engine, the vehicle had 3,650 miles on it and it's brand new. Maintenance says oil change at 10k miles. Service mgr. Told me the same exact thing happened to the parts mgr. Sister. I have also been told by 1 other person the same thing happened to her while driving in traffic. Service mgr. Told me to bring vehicle back in 2k miles and if oil is low they would replace engine at no charge. *dt*jb |
