 Description of the problemWhile driving the jeep compassm with less than 5k miles, the car shut off while i was going about 35 mph without warning and locked the steering and everything. I took it to the jeep dealer and without hesitation, they knew that it needed a brand new engine because the car "should not be burning oil this quickly." they made it seem as though this occurs extremely frequently and i have read several forums about people having the same issue just by looking up "jeep compass burning oil." this is an extremely hazardous situation and should be addressed immediately. *dt consumer stated dealer told him rings and pistons in the engine and that the old engine was burning a crazy amount of oil engine was burning a tremendous amount of oil, dealer hinted that a recall may happen because how common the problem was.*jb
