| Description of the problem | I was driving my jeep renegade and it just cut off in the middle of me driving for no reason, the only thing that it showed on the dash was you must put your car in park to shift. There were no warning lights or anything. I took it to the jeep dealer they plugged it in said there are no codes it's fine. I left went across the street to work. When i left i pulled out into traffic and it cutoff. I got it started after a few tries and started on my way to the dealership. When i went to pull in it cutoff again. Service plugs it in, no codes, he wanted me to drive it home and come back in the morning. I'm like it cutoff twice in traffic, your keeping it. He calls this morning says it needs a new motor there wasn't any oil in it. Then he calls back later says chrysler says i have to do an oil consumption test and that they are designed to cutoff if there is no oil pressure. What if i was going 70 down the interstate and it cutoff. What if my 16 year old daughter was driving it and it cutoff. In looking up problems with this vehicle it is a known fact and happens all the time. How can they sell a vehicle that just shuts off when it feels like it with no warning or warning lights. |
