Description of the problem	I bought the compass with 136 miles on it. Around the 4500 mile mark my jeep died as i was accelerating on a straight, 25 mph street segment after making a turn 30 feet prior. After bringing the jeep in immediately for service, the technicians found nothing wrong. Two days later i was pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy road. A log truck was coming but i had enough time to pull out and accelerate without creating a need for the log truck to brake. As i began to pull out, my jeep died with the nose slightly into the lane of oncoming traffic. Fortunately no accident followed. I was able to get the jeep started after a minute and drove straight to the service center. They said it was due to low oil and that it was an engine protection feature. Hey jeep/chrylser... How is an engine protection feature that provides no warning a better option than the vehicle stalling in the path of oncoming traffic? Since those incidents, i notice i burn oil fast and spend more money constantly pouring oil into my jeep than i do on my 2005 silverado with over 115,000 miles. Either install a sensor that alerts the driver of a low oil condition prior to the jeep stalling in traffic or rethink your design! What if it was your family in the vehicle? Now my jeep hesitates when i need to accelerate, but does not stall since i add a quart frequently.
