| Description of the problem | My issue is the large amount of oil used, 1 qt used per 2500 miles. This is what the dealership and jeep told me. Normal oil consumption: below are industry standards for normal engine oil consumption: mileage below 50,000: normal oil consumption is one quart for each 1,000 miles driven. Mileage above 50,000: normal oil consumption is one quart for each 750 miles driven. So, as long as a jeep with 50000 or more miles on it does not use more than a quart of oil every 750 miles they do not care, and they will not fix it. I was also told that why new jeeps take 6 qt's since they use so much oil. I even have a warranty and they still will not fix it. There are no oil leaks and i have had 2 oil consumption test ran on the vehicle by the dealership. The dealership and chrysler will not help fix the problem. I was told by the dealership that i am lucky it does not use a quart of oil every 1000 miles, since it may get low enough to burn the engine up in under 2500 miles. *kb |
