| Description of the problem | Oil consumption issues. Car shuts off while driving without any warning. This almost caused me to be involved in a car crash. This occurred three times within 24 hours with my car. Took the car to jeep service and the attendant stated that this car "consumes 1 quart of oil every 1,000 miles" and that i should call corporate. When i brought the car to jeep it was out of oil with no warning of a need for an oil change or that i was low on oil. When i bought this car from the dealership i was not made aware that i would need to change the oil this often and that this car "consumes" this much oil requiring constant service. It is also not stated in the owners manual. The issue with this car could cause a horrible collision, as while the car is in motion it completely turns off the engine. When this happened to me i was in the middle of a turn and when i pressed the gas to accelerate the car just rolled because the engine was shut off and i had no power steering. As this occurred another car was coming, luckily they had a stop sign. |
