| Description of the problem | We bought the jeep new with 8600 miles on it. 4000 miles after our first oil change at the dealer, the engine oil light came on while turning a corner. I checked the oil level to which i needed to add three quarts to bring it back to normal. We have 20,000 miles on our car. This seems to be a lot of oil. There are no oil spots or drips under our car and no smoke is coming out from the muffler. Engine bay is clean. I searched online and found many other new jeep owners with the same complaint. Is anything being done about this? |
