 Description of the problemI purchased and have driven a new 2018 jeep renegade 2. 4 auto since december 2018. I was driving the other day and turned into traffic when unexpectedly the low oil light came on in my vehicle and it completely shut down! Total power loss. I was almost demolished by a fully loaded log truck. I parked the car and checked the oil per the instruction manual procedure. It was over 2 qts. Low in 5,000 miles of driving. I have tried multiple times and the jeep dealership refused to provide me with any repair documents after inspection. They told me the problem is well known but fca is doing nothing to remedy it and their service department was not going to do any further evaluation into the problem. This was not disclosed to me in any way before i purchased the vehicle nor is it mentioned or included at all in the owners/ maintenance manual. In addition i had to pay $85. 00 for an oil change that should not have even been necessary. These vehicles are not safe to drive. I now have to park my nearly new vehicle because i am terrified to drive this car in traffic. They are still selling these things! Please make them stop, they are dangerous vehicles to drive.*dt*jb
